i would like to have a factory PCV valve as supplied on 261s. I believe this discussion has come up before but I don't remember the outcome. I suspect the part number on the valve I have has been superseded but I haven't found on by the original part number of by application does anyone have a source?

Mine draws too much air and I can't get the idle speed down below about 1,000 RPM so I went back to the road draft tube. Does either raising or lowering the spring tension change the amount of air at idle? My old one appears to have the correct spring tension according to the manual. It's probably worn so it leaks and I done 't know what a new one looks like.
