72581, PCV for 1999 incorrect, correct one listed under 1996.

Just as an FYI for those out there; not sure if any of you have had this problem either.

I am replacing all the rubber hoses & vaccuum lines in my car and also bought a PCV valve as well. The one listed under my year was a 180* threaded valve. I had the guy run a search a few years back & on a talon to compare and that popped up the correct 90* valve. Weird, maybe just a mis-listing at the parts store I work at.

Anyone else come across this? :shrug

Yeah I know... as far as I have seen ALL 2GNTs have the 90* PCV valve going from the valve cover to intake plenum. I was just saying that for some reason the one listed was incorrect.

The first time I bought brake pads for Daisy in early 97, Ihad to get the ones for a 96 since there was some sort of mixup like that. It happens. Just recently, a store tried selling us a set of spark plug wired for the 4g46 for Sarah's car. I had to drag the co0d outside and show him they were wrong before the would sell me 97 Talon wires for a 99 Eclipse. :P

Interesting... as far as I know all 2G FWD pads are the same. :shrug

Wrong engine. Bad parts manager. No cookie.

The threaded PCV is the valve for 1990-1999 Turbo eclipses.
The 90* plastic PCV is the valve for 1995-1999 Non Turbo eclipses.
