This picture was taken before I moved anything. No MAP sensor present.
BillBoost 37 said: "Most have a sensor wire up there as well"
SO I'm assuming that means that some don't . Like mine.
So, should I have a spring with the PCV?

MAP sensors are only on the full-OBD2 cars.

95 SE'* don't have them.
92-94 SE/SLE/SSE don't have them.

92-95 SSEi'* have them ONLY for the boost gauge. So a supercharged SE/SSE will not get one either in those years.

So is the spring found in the pcv housing only required if a MAP sensor is present?

And the Series 1 L67 has a spring. Not sure about the Series 2 L67.

Your 95 SE did not come with a spring in the PCV housing and you don't need to add one.

No problem...sometimes we throw numbers around here like they are going out of style, and forget that plain, simple, communication is just as effective.
