pcv
I accessed the PCV with the firewall panel and the engine cover removed. There was evidence of oil on the manifold top around the PCV. I cleaned the PCV with carb cleaner and the spring loaded valve seemed to be working ok after the cleaning.
I worked from behind the drivers seat to remove the PCV. Thru the firewall, I had to disconnect an electrical connection and remove a bracket and carefully move a hose out of the way but the part was not too too bad to remove. I reached both thru the firewall and down thru the open upper engine cover. Going down thru the upper engine cover, you'll need long extensions for your 1/4 drive sockets to loosen the bolt holding the PCV. As always, the stupid two tab squeeze fitting was a mother to release.
To reattach the PCV, I used a long extendable magnetic "wand" or part grabber to put the bolt holding the PCV in place back in the threaded hole.
It is a hard to get at part.
