Hey guys I installed my PCV valve a while ago and when i took the old nasty one out and popped the new one in, i realized a while after driving that i never put the old oring back on the new one, so i took it off and put the new one on but im not sure i put it on the right way... anyone got a pic of how its supposed to be??? that would be very helpful thanks!!!

o-ring? i may have forgotten since i did mine, but i dont remember an o-ring. just a little drop-in tube with a vent thing on the top. i RTV'd the metal plate and screwed it back in. -
Sorry to hijack the thread...but do you guys think the a bad pcv valve can cause rough idle? I have 86,000 on the car.....how long is a pcv typically good for?Comment

Hey, I'd like to see some pics of a pcv changeout.
I wrote in on another thread a couple of weeks back and asked if anyone knew where the pcv was on our cars and I don't recall anyone actually letting me know. The info sure would help me.\"this isn\'t flying...its falling...with style!\"<br /> -Buzz Lightyear<br /><br /><br /> 96 bright red firebird, T-tops, monsoon CD Flowmaster catback dual exhaust <br /><br /> <a href=\"http://members.cardomain.com/joyfellowship1\" target=\"_blank\">http://members.cardomain.com/joyfellowship1</a> <br /> <a href=\"http://www.joyfellowshipchurch.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.joyfellowshipchurch.com</a>Comment

Pastor, it is on the plenum right in front and below the tip of the cowl. You will see the black plate with 2 bolts on it. Just unbolt it,,,carefully, as there is a spring there. Take out the old one. Shake it, if it still makes noise, that means it's still good. But since you took it out, might as well replace it :DOriginally posted by Pastor Larry Roques:

Hey FRENCH_CAMAROV6!
Thank you so much for the link to the pictures regarding the changeout of the PCV valve. I am, by heritage, French to the bone, but unfortunately could not order lunch for myself when I was in Paris. My Mother speaks French pretty well and I may ask her to help me with some of the translation. I think the pictures are pretty self-explanitory though...
Wow, Bourdeaux....beautiful part of the country.
My folks (mother's and father's side) were from an area just outside Paris, I believe called Dubourg.

What do you mean? It is on the driver's side valve cover you can't miss it, you should have the oil fill there and then the pcv a lil' futher backOriginally posted by 95DropTop:

Wrong and right. A PCV valve that still "shakes" can be bad, this is a poor old-school test.Originally posted by F1GT:
Shake it, if it still makes noise, that means it's still good. But since you took it out, might as well replace it :D
And yes, if you ook the 2 minutes out of your time to pop the hood, un-do the 2 bolts, and shake it, replace it anyway! It should take under 5 minutes from te time you pop te hood until you close it.<a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.fullthrottlev6.com</a> THE SOURCE!Comment
