Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) Valve Cleaning and Inspection
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Flush the carbon from the PCV valve orifices (1) using solvent.
- Dry the PCV valve orifices using compressed air.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to remove the valve from the valve rocker arm cover, as damage may occur to the rocker arm valve cover. The positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve is a fixed orifice system.
