HELP! Broken PCV Valve... =(
I was trying to replace my PCV Valve, and when I pulled on the old one.. it broke. Now, the lower half of the old PCV Valve is still stuck in the intake manifold. How am I supposed to get it out so I can replace it with a new one? Any suggestions?
put your car on jack stands so that you don't become pancaked. crawl under it then pull the hose that is plugged into that black evap canister (not sure of the specific name) that is also plugged into the intake manifold. Once it's all out, then you can try to remove the broken piece that is stuck in the hose. Install in the reverse order.
i would not even try to take the hose out from the bottom as someone stated. reason being is that it is a BIIiiattchh to put back into the manifold hole (ask me how i know).
easy out would work too, if you can locate an easy out that big for that hole.
anyways, use a long flat head screw driver and try to pry it out.
if that doesn't work. you can try to yank it with long needle nose plyers. when you do it this way just wiggle it out. should work because that is what i did.
