Thanks, that's pretty much exactly what he has doing.

Changed hose going from inline oil separator to intake to a 5/16" fuel line. The purolator oil separator has a smaller outlet for the stock hose to seal to. The plastic OEM barb that screws into the intake manifold is brass now.

Finally added some dome lights after losing the old ones w/ the headliner.
They're tough to spot... there are 4 eagle eye LED's. I wired them in permanent automatic mode (no switch)

Vertical position just above the valve cover... routing 5/16" fuel hose to intake using zip ties to keep in position.



Updated photos... relocated oil separator to a vertical position so that it will not allow oil to the intake manifold vs the horizontal position.

I found this inline mod on this forum from back in 11' but it did not specify installing it vertically.

I saw your first post and was going to say how it's better to have the PCV vertical rather than horizontal. Vertical is the way I have mine too just like in your picture.
Did you add a PCV on the driver's side of the engine too? I might do it on the driver's side too because of my OCD of keeping the intake clean.

I replaced my ABS modulator, bled the complete brake system (fresh Pentosin DOT 4). Ended up seeing all sorts of syrup and crap come out and am now really considering replacing all the soft lines and really re-doing my brake system. I had a brakeline rupture during a panic stop some years back and would prefer not to repeat that.

Also gave my D2 a long needed bath and she repaid me by throwing misfire codes that now have me shopping for spark plugs, wires, ect.

Patience. Car wash, water-induced misfires should clear up on their own. At least mine did. O2 sensors don't like having their connectors get wet.
