Read it from another post, I am wondering, is it possible to replace the PCV valve myself?

As you may know, I have a 4th Gen. Where is it located? Do I need a professional to do the job for me?

Thanks!

Nope, did it myself. Bought the valve from CT, installed it in 2 min.


If you need help I can show you, hardest part is finding it, but look for an L shaped joint with a tube leading to the intake manifold I belive.

Yes...a Chilton manual would help you too, but Loudsubz is correct.

Replaced the PCV valve on my Civic. As you all said, it is very easy to do...given you have the right tool (wrench doesn't work too well)... It was so tight, and turn out I need to buy a socket from Home Depot to un-tighten it.

Again, thanks for all the info.

I am also wondering should I be noticing anything after the replacement?

Thanks again for your help!

Not a big diff...it's just an emissions control peice, so emmisions would go down, but you could never tell.
