- Remove the air cleaner.
- Disconnect the hose from the PCV valve.
- Remove the valve from the special fitting in the intake manifold.
- Install the valve in the intake manifold fitting and connect the hose
to the valve.
- Connect the hose to the air cleaner and install the air filter.
- Check for loose clamps or cracks in the PCV lines and replace the hoses
if cracked.
Simply pull the PCV valve from the grommet in the valve cover and remove
the hose clamp. Then, pull it from the hose. Install the new valve and install
the clamp.
NOTE: If your engine exhibits lower than normal gas mileage
and poor idle characteristics for no apparent reason, suspect the PCV valve.
It is probably blocked and should be replaced.
