"Overview: This bulletin involves installing revised PCV system components."
Models: 2000 - 2005 (DR) Ram Truck
"Note: This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with 4.7L engines, sale code EVA".
"Symtom/Condition: Some customers operating in extreme cold ambient temperatures (Below 0*F or Neg 18*C) may experience moisture collecting in the PCV system and freezing. This can lead to a varitey of cold engine crankcase venting or driveability issues."
"Diagnisis: If a customer indicates that they are experiencing any cold engine crankcase venting or driveability symptoms, perform the Repair Procedure."
Qty: 1
Part Number: 05191104AA
Description: PCV kit
It's 8 pages, most of which detail installation depending upon the particular configuration and location of the intake manifold PCV port.
In a nutshell:
It replaces the oil fill housing with a new one without a PCV valve (P/N 53020891AE), gives directions on new hose fabrication and routing, and lists other parts which may or may not be needed depending on existing configuration.
The last page has time allowance of 0.7 hours for dealer installation.
Also -
"Policy: Reimbursable within the provisions of the warranty."
What this says to me is that, because it's an "Emissions" group TSB, there may be emissions-related warranty coverage.
My local Dodge Parts department will gladly sell me a kit for $120 + tax.
