    PCV valve replacement time...

    Ok I don't think my valve has been replaces in a few years so I'm gonna get another one... I tried to pull the old one out and its stuck real good, can't even get the hose off. Can anybody share the methods they've used to remove a stuck valve? And from reading some previous posts on the subject it looks like i can actually do some damage to a plastic tube thingy in there.... so please give me any input you can, thanks!

    hey nice you are from madison too a straight city i may add. yeah just pull on it and twist it and sparay wd-40 or PB blaster on or around it it should come off eventually, if you do end up having to break it just make sure you just break the pcv and not the tube!
