[Healeys] oil vent filter

[WILLIAM B LAWRENCE]

Ira,

It would be much simpler to install a PCV valve. There is a method shown in
John Sims' archives. Very simple on a 6, takes a lot more work on a 4. The
parts you need will cost less than $10. Solves the problem, keeps the engine
clean and slows down the oil leaks.
