CCV grommet
I have an 05 Wrangler 4.0 (2500 miles). It seems to be sweating some oil
out of the CCV grommet at the fromt of the valve cover (the one that goes to the breather). I had to have the Jeep in the dealership for a soft top leak, so I had them check the valve cover; they said it was moisture and was ok. This doesn't seem right to me on an engine with 2500 miles. Is this normal? Thanks. |
Re: CCV grommet
The mechanic called it moisture, which is water condensation,
probably from your air conditioner hoses, but not oil from inside the engine.

Re: CCV grommet
I didn't like it when that happened to our Cherokee at about 280K km so
I used RTV on it after I cleaned it up really good. Same for my 86 CJ7, got a new grommet for that, the only leak on that now is the filler cap. I 'sure' wouldn't like it on a new engine....
