anyone ever replace the PCV valve?

Thanks Meir

I saw that thread, I even revived it hoping there was something new about it.

I just changed my AOS less than 10k miles ago and its blowing oil again into the manifold again... i'm thinking the PVC valve might be the reason?

Question... if a bad PVC is the reason my AOS is blowing oil and I fix the PVC, do I need to also replace the AOS again? Or will that operate normal once the PVC/vac problem subsides?

Hi

I think you need to change the AOS anyway because from what I understand it's a diaphragm inside that break.

I just change the PCV valve and AOS and all is running good right now, I hope it will last this time.

Probably a good idea to do both I guess...
On a scale of 1-10... How hard is the PVC? Harder than the AOS? Ive done that... It was a bit of a pita...

PCV valve, I would say as hard as the AOS the first time. Its just so tight in there. Hardest part I think was reconnecting the hose to the PCV valve.

Is it easier with the manifold removed? I did the AOS with it on before, but if it makes it easier to change both by taking off the manifold ill probably do that... Not sure if that's even a good idea?

Thanks for the input...

Its probably easy with the manifold removed, but I defenitly didnt want to remove it.
