got some replacement valves just wondered how easy they are to fit some pic would be help in trying to locate them

deep socket and they come out fairly easy with a ratchet.

 

Spanner not to easy as not much room to move them.

under side of the plenum near the rear, if you have a look you can spot them. bit of a pain to replace but nothing a bit of patients wont sort out.

 

 

Number 8 in the picture above. think you need a 19mm spanner (socket is better, check with the ones i sent you)

you will need to remove your upper boost pipes that run along each side of the engine ...

take off the pipe connected to the pcv valves and then use your socket & ranch to remove ...

Sorry; never read your post properly and presumed you knew where they were, :no:

 

Thanks voddy for again showing me up by posting a smashing picture !:thumbup1:

dunno :whistling:

if you are fitting new pcv's its worth replacing the 5 pcv hoses as well :)..............had my pcvs out so many times now i become a dab hand at them.no need to remove boost pipes, passenger side is a bit easier with the battery off.

Err what picture?

hope this helps PCV replacement

 

dan.:biggrin:

nice to see you back Dan.... :)

Doing the valves is pretty easy, removing/replacing old, hard rubber pipes is virtually impossible, so getting new pipes at the same time so that you can cut the old ones off is probably the way forward.

are they specific pipe or can you use some vac hose?

The one at the rear of the plenum is a plain hose, but tapered one end and the two to the pcvs have restrictors in them and the two from the front of the cam covers have restrictors and flame traps in them :)
