How can I go about removing it? I'm working on something and I'd like to take it off, would make life much easier. Thanks in advance!

I didn't know there was a PCV Valve. Where specificly is this? I know there is venting into the the intake via the TB, but there is just a line going from the valve cover to the TB.

Do you mean the PCV on the valve cover?

I picked up an extra set cheap, I think the valve got bent in shipping anyways so It's no big deal to replace it, so you just pull it out? Did you use vice grips or something?

I used needle nose to get the torn seal out and then I used a rubber hammer and the handle of a phillips to knock it back in the valve cover. You will know if its not in all the way, one good rev and the oil will spray the battery lol

But the Bronze valve itself *their sitting at work or I'd do it right now* did you just yank it out? Sorry if I sound stupid just checking before I go to yanking on things.

I wished I could see a picture, here is the thread that helped me out a lot.. My seal was leaking around the PCV so I removed the valve cover all together hope this helps you out.

This is the PCV your talking about right?

 

[EagleStroker]

That's awesome man much obliged. I wasn't even thinking about the breather setup I'm about to run, but I got some good ideas from that thread!

It says it uses a came lock, just a quarter turn. So vice grips it is.

 

[EagleStroker]

No that's not it, let me find a picture and I'll come back.

 

[Wyld]

LOL alright, hope you get it all worked out!

 

[EagleStroker]

Your welcome for the lovely drawing. It's the valve this hose connects to, one way, goes into the oil baffles in the inside of the cover.

Now I see.. yea mine came off with the valve cover
