94 YJ, 4.0L. Took the little plug with the breather that runs from the valve cover to the airbox out of the valve cover and now I can't get the @#$%^ thing back in. Any tricks?

The gasket probably came out with it. Remove the gasket and install it back in the valve cover. Use a little oil to lube up the fitting and press it back in.

Same here. It will be quicker, just take the cover off


My first one snapped when I tried to force it in

Son of a bitch. Will it hurt to plug the hole with something and drive it anyway? If not, what can I use to plug it with? What if I got some cardboard and cut a hole for the breather thingy and then duct taped that to valve cover so the breather tube could still be hooked up?

Just a temporary fix to get it home today. That is pretty hillbilly though.
