Default Curiouse, may be a slight problem......


1.5L SOHC Civic DX

Kinda weird, My PCV valve hums.....
The hose going from the intake manny to pcv is caving in kinda, its like sucking so hard the hose is caved in.
I replaced that hose with a hard hose, and the pcv valve still hums, I replaced pcv valve and it still kinda hums. Idle is not affected. Like I said Im juts curious of what that is and why the it was sucking soo hard it caved in the soft hose?

Could it be an intake manny leak? I recently did a head swap, and I bent the gasket a lil when i put it on.

So my problems are:

PCV valve hums... WHY?
Why is PCV Vac hose caved in from sucking too hard?
Maybe I have an intake manny leak... if so how do I test?

Sorry for the noobish post, But I had to....

I think your PCV valve is stuck.
