PCV Valve Location |
Mon 24 Mar 2008 03:43:20 PM |
Hi, I am trying to locate the PCV valve on my 1998 k11. The haynes manual doesnt really help much. Any help would be gratefully received.
Kind Regards, Chris |

it's located at the rear right of the engine cover nearby the airbox, and is a plastic part inbetween a vacuum hose from the TB and the engine cover.

theres this rubber seal adapter in the engine cover bit that the valve plugs into (similar to a garden hose ya know?). remove the vacuum hose then carefully pull out the valve, should slip out eventually.

gu_niang1200 WROTE: "any one knows wat is piping for?once it is removed the idling is terrible?" if you have taken the hose off, you are causing a air leak, which is air entering the engine without be recorded by the TB, put the pipe back on and it will be ok |
