As some of you have read about my adventures with the 1995 Dakota 2.5 liter, I transplanted a 1991 rebuilt motor into the truck. The original (95) motor came with an aluminum valve cover which I switched over to the 91 motor. My question is if the "sheet metal curtain" should have been installed under the 95 valve cover ? The 95 motor didn't have a curtain on it but the previous owner had been into it and I don't know if he left the curtain out. If it needs a curtain, is there a difference between the 95 and 91 curtains? What is driving this question is that I am using oil and was thinking that not having the curtain in place could allow oil to be drawn thru the PCV valve and into the intake manifold. Thanks for any thoughts you may have. Don
