Keeping your vehicle’s PCV valve hose in good working order will help the engine run cleaner and more efficiently. Reinstall any engine covers or plastic covers that were removed. Make sure to secure the hose ends with the type of clamps it is designed to use. Clamp the hose by using either the clamps provided or the old clamps. If needed, you can apply a very thin layer of grease to help slip it over the PCV valve or the intake fitting. The hose will typically slip right over the fitting when installing. Position the clamp on the PCV valve hose. Once you have identified and removed the connector, remove the PCV valve hose by gently twisting and pulling the hose away from the fitting. This requires first examining how the quick disconnect works. Quick disconnectors are removed by releasing and slightly pulling to remove. Spring hose clamps are removed by using a pair of pliers to collapse and slide the clamp away from the hose end. Gear type hose clamps are removed by using a ¼ inch or 5/16 inch socket to loosen the hose clamp and slide it from the hose ends. Your vehicle may use quick disconnectors, spring hose clamps, or gear type hose clamps. Once you locate the PCV valve, you will see how the PCV valve hose is attached to the PCV valve and the intake. It will either be retained by nuts and bolts or just snapped into place with rubber insulators. Simply enter your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to see the most complete and up-to-date information on current or previous recalls.

The image above shows a PCV valve (1) and the PCV valve hose (2). No muss, no fuss and most importantly, no dejection. The PCV valve is located on a valve cover, which is in various locations on the valve cover depending on the make. Part 1 of 1: Replacing the PCV valve hose A PCV valve hose failure can cause poor fuel economy, a Check Engine Light to come on, and can cause the engine to run rough. The engine reburns these gases, which reduces emissions and keeps the engine running cleaner. These gases raise emissions, so to reduce the emissions the PCV valve routes these excess gases through the PCV valve hose to the intake airbox or intake manifold. The PCV valve is activated when crankcase pressure rises in the engine when running. The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve hose is a hose running from the valve cover on the engine to either the intake air box or the intake manifold.
