Purolator PCV Valve
See if this part fits a specific vehicle.
The PCV valve is one half of the crankcase ventilation system - the other half is the breather filter. The breather flows clean air into the crankcase through a hose on your air filter and the PCV valve lets dirty air and crankcase gases out. These dirty gases and air get sent through the engine to be re-burned for clean emissions. An old PCV valve can cause rough engine idle, blown oil seals, fouled air filter and fuel system, fumes in the passenger compartment, excessive engine part wear, and shorter oil life. Although the PCV is not a pollution control valve, a worn out PCV valve can contribute to air pollution. So, it’s important to change your PCV valve for the safety of your vehicle - and the environment!

Comments about Purolator PCV Valve:
Undoubtedly the simplest part to replace on my engine. No tools needed. Just pull the old one out of the rubber seat, pull off the air line, install new valve. 10 second job. Replaced an older Purolator that had been on for about 75,000 miles. Old one was still OK but had some gunk on it. Part was to inexpensive to clean old one so just dropped in a new one. No problems. I reserve 5 stars for parts that exceed all my expectations. Mechanically, this vavle is fine, but its hard to get excited about something so simple; thats why 4 stars.
