  Q: How do you replace a PCV valve for Chevrolet Caprice?

  A: Usually, you may find the PCV valve pushed into one of the rocker arm covers on the side of the engine, with a hose attached to it which runs either to the intake manifold or the Carburetor. Thus, when purchasing a new PCV valve, make sure that it is designed for your specific vehicle, model year and engine size. Subsequently, use pliers or screwdriver (according to type of pipe clip) to loosen clamp on end of hose and move clamp up toward PCV hose. Next, pull the PCV valve off from its end of hose while remembering its installed position and direction. This will assist in ensuring that the old valve is similar to the new one. Gently push new valve until fully seated into end of hose. Move hose clamp down hose then tighten it securely around end of hose. Inspect rubber grommet in cover for damage and replace if necessary. Lastly, press in the PCV valve and hose snugly into rocker arm cover. More information about PCV system can be found elsewhere.
