its really not that hard to do- it would take only about anhour to do it - its really easy
E1 SVT- the basic design of the gaskets does not allow for leaking- unless one is a complete imbecile I dont know how you can get one to leak

So how does one clean their secondaries? Like, what tools, supplies, etc.? I'm not very fluent around the engine. . .

Mine will definitely stay clean...  Screw Ford and their stupid design... :p I too used B12. Great stuff! BTW - If you thought the LIM was bad. Look at the head ports and valves once...

SVTimulate,
I used GUMOUT 'Intake and Throttle Body' cleaner. Either Walmart or Meijers had it, although any auto parts store should carry it.
Don't use Gumout CARB cleaner, it's not meant for our cars. However, I can't tell you why other than the Carb cleaner can said not to.
Good luck.

One of my friends who is a mustang guy said that it gets dirty sucking pressure out of the valve cover so taking one of those small clear fuel filters (the ones with the replacable filter part) and put it inline would help catch the oil, then once every few months you can replace the filter. Anyone try this yet? I'm gonna try it.

BS buddy...the air goes IN to the valve cover NOT OUT...it gets IN to the manifold from the PCV valve ,at which point it also draws in gas fumes from the tank...NEVER TRICKLE FILL THE BL**DY GAS TANK...the raw fuel fills the carbon canisters and ends up gumming up the intakes and change that PCV more often!!!
