Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) cleaning blowby bottle

[jelvington]

Is there a way to clean out the blowby bottle? I have done a few searches and read all about re-routing the hose but nothing as far as cleaning. I might look at doing that later but for now I would like to know if there is a way to just clean it out. I have started getting drips on my driveway and in the garage.

Is it full of oil?Is that why its dripping?Take it off and pour what oil in there out. Get some gasoline,solvent and wipe it out. But your best bet is to pitch it. Add a length of hose to it and run it back father and just vent it to the atmosphere. No more worries then. If you have done a search on here you have found out all about it.

It is dripping from there. I didn't know if it had to be cleaned out or not and I will look at extending the hose while I'm there.

I've just put some kitty litter for it to fall on for now. I don't like what its doing to my driveway, especially since I am trying to sell the house. Thanks.
