Valve cover vent tube falls out

[Turbo4door1]

Yeah, I should probably know this, but don't - so here goes:

What holds the 90 degree valve cover vent tube in the valve cover? Mine is now loose, and likes to vibrate out while driving, which tends to let oil blow all over the place when driving a bit "spirited". /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Do I just need to find a new valve cover, or is there some easy way to permanently re-attach it?

Thanks.

 

If I recall, I JB Welded mine back in in #1886.

If that doesn't work you can tap the hole with a 1/8" NPT tap and screw in a fitting.

It's an interference fit. Usually.
