The best explanation I ever got. Because everyone says if the ball moving up and down the valve is ok but no u guys explained so well and thanks for helping everyone love ya
I usually have a glass jar of acetone on garage. I soak PVC valve for 2 hours. and does the trick. Cleans the gunk inside valve pretty good. Thanks for the informative vedio and Don't forget to have a drink every time your hear "Guys".😁
Ty for the tip sire! Think I'm gonna try acetone on the EGR valve as well(not on the electrical parts of course) because I couldn't get the 1/4 tube part all that clean. Ty again
I just cleaned my pcv i remember when i blew into it from the out side it didn’t close i was just trying to blow clean it , after i watched you guys i have to replace it thank u . Camry 97
The balloon test is a good one, but instead of cleaning it's better just to install a new one (not expensive), I just replaced it in my car myself (just over 75k miles), and I think the car is performing better - who knew this little piece can make such a difference in the car
i lose count of how many OK's i've heard but still i love watching your videos keep it up bro and thank you for sharing, but i didnt see what i was hoping to see 😅 i want to aee the actual range the internal valve of the pcv as it works on idle and on different rpms hope you show us in the future
Thanks learn something new I'm dealing with all 4 cylinders misfire I replaced iac valve ignition coils and spark plugs also have new fuel pump and filter that were replaced couple months ago this is being a headache I hope it's this
I changed the pcv valve the hose and the separate data connector going into the resonator but but i still have a p0442 evap small leak the scan tool had said it from the pcv from the mechanic i went to any advice should i have put Teflon tape around the threading to the pcv valve
Could you guys show were a peacock location is or how to locate it on a 2017 honda civic ex-t coupe. Very difficult to locate it. Thank-you I really appreciate it. You guys are great love watching your videos
How does the Peugeot 207 1.4 8 valve work . I can't see a valve on the rocker cover only likee a junction with 2 pipes . Where is the pcv on this engine please ?
Ballon test was wrong guys. Pcv will pass weak pressure air through it. But not high pressure. The baloon is giving weak pressure of course. Misinformation
Some valves (earlier ones?) don't have balls, but a tapered plunger because at idle you have high manifold vacuum and high speed/ acceleration very low to near no vacuum and so there is a need to moderate those high vacuum conditions. Yes, they never sealed completely by design. One wouldn't want that. These things were on 6 cylinders at least, but the problem with 4 cylinders and less, pulsing and too low a vacuum is created. May be why a ball is used in these cases as you do need a seal? May be there's another scavenging component? I don't know though. It a thing to ponder and find an answer?
I soaked and cleaned thoroughly the PCV valve, test it using the balloon as you did in the video but I did not deflate immediately the balloon in the PCV valve instead I left on the table for 4 minutes. The minutes passes by, the balloon deflated very slowly. In fact I hear a little bit of hissing sound in the PCV. So my question is should a good PCV valve be air tight sealed or not? Thanks
PCV valves are so cheap, just replace or clean it and see if it fixes the issue. It’s probably not a big deal. If not, check your oil level and coolant levels. If either one is low, fill it up and drive around, check again in a few hundred miles. If you’re loosing coolant or oil, you may have a coolant leak or head gasket issue.
Valve cover yes, that's how I found out mine was bad. Replaced it a year ago and it started leaking again and even caused timing chain cover to leak as well
@@NextLevelAutoDiagnostics Yes, indeed, he lets it pass in both Yes, he skips in both directions, but in one direction more in the other less. From the collector side approx10% ,cylinder block side approx. 90% ,also works the valve bought on Aliexpress
Try using silicone lubricant spray (found in the automotive section at Walmart pretty cheaply) And spray it all around the seals of your valve. It's acetone based, so it's an excellent penetrant. As acetone can cause some finger numbness, Let it dry completely before touching it. This should help make your o-rings more pliable, provide some lubrication, and make it easier to take out. Hope this helps, let us know how it goes! 😊🌎✨
I just bought a 2017 Hyundai sonata I change oil sparks plugs and pcv valve and the oil light came on when breaking I drain the oil and only 1 1/2 quart on it so it burns 3 1/2 quarts in less than 2k miles ,why?

I test my pcv valve and I blow air from side wich is go to head is open
From other side with is go to intack is blocked
Just replace it, pcv valves are cheap don't clean it
This is the most unprofessional professional video ive ever seen😂 I love this

Hi guys. Thanks so much guys. You guys are really good guys. Remember that guys. Again, thanks guys.
Yeah guys, what he said guys. You guys are the best guys!! Also, guys!
@@SirSmokesAlott Yeah Guise you Guise are great Guise to listen to guise. Thanks so much Guise......Guise
definitely the best video of how pcv works how to test and a thorought explanation around the subject.Big thumbs up bro!
Thank you for the great explanation. I am not very educated about car engines. But I love to learn.
Thanks guys for sharing some of your knowledge from lots of DYI guys in the USA
Благодаря приятел, златен си!

New subscriber. Your videos tend to pop up with everything im digging into so might as well hang around. Appreciate the knowledge!
Thank you! Very good learning for me. The valve is bad, need to change it.
i lose count of how many OK's i've heard but
still i love watching your videos
keep it up bro and thank you for sharing,
but i didnt see what i was hoping to see 😅
i want to aee the actual range the internal valve of the pcv as it works on idle and on different rpms
hope you show us in the future
This really helped me understand better.
Can you use carb cleaner?
Thanks for this. Just what I was looking for!
Do you have to have a code in order for it to give you problems?

Thank you very much...I have a bad or faulty PCV
How does the Peugeot 207 1.4 8 valve work . I can't see a valve on the rocker cover only likee a junction with 2 pipes . Where is the pcv on this engine please ?
Can a bad PCV valve make timing chain sound louder?
Lol I subscribed I thought your video was great but I laughed at the wear gloves part lol 😆
Ballon test was wrong guys. Pcv will pass weak pressure air through it. But not high pressure. The baloon is giving weak pressure of course. Misinformation
Yeah, I tested with a brand new valve and it leaks as you say, same way their broken one does.
Some valves (earlier ones?) don't have balls, but a tapered plunger because at idle you have high manifold vacuum and high speed/ acceleration very low to near no vacuum and so there is a need to moderate those high vacuum conditions. Yes, they never sealed completely by design. One wouldn't want that. These things were on 6 cylinders at least, but the problem with 4 cylinders and less, pulsing and too low a vacuum is created. May be why a ball is used in these cases as you do need a seal?
May be there's another scavenging component? I don't know though. It a thing to ponder and find an answer?
can that pcv causes the exhaust smoke to coming out from intake manifold?
I like your explanations very helpful
That's look like mine , Thank u from Iraq

The minutes passes by, the balloon deflated very slowly. In fact I hear a little bit of hissing sound in the PCV. So my question is should a good PCV valve be air tight sealed or not? Thanks
Good question, I'd love to know the answer.
Another comment said it should slowly deflate, not air tight
Great job, guys. Keep it simple. You are awesome.
Trq has a vid, he takes off intake etc etc, to remove valve. Entertainment at its best😂
P.s. some slap shot mechanics, use cheapest vac hose. Vacuum will actually collapse these cheap hoses.
is this pcv in the same location in a doch engine? thanks
Thanks guys your great 😊
Remember guys, it can destroy your engine! (Thanks for posting this!) 😄😊🌎✨
I appreciate this info, but the coke nail is a little disturbing.
Lovely. Worst issue is i cannot get replacement parts for a bad pcv for my vw fox... -.-
You could just try Kia part inside of a hose. Then just take out the guts from the original and use it for a fitting.
Original pcv value and the one on the link recommended are different.
Hello, when I open my oil cap air blows out, does it mean I have a bad pcv valve?
PCV valves are so cheap, just replace or clean it and see if it fixes the issue. It’s probably not a big deal.
If not, check your oil level and coolant levels. If either one is low, fill it up and drive around, check again in a few hundred miles. If you’re loosing coolant or oil, you may have a coolant leak or head gasket issue.
Just change it anyways
ty!🙂
Thank you very much

Thank you for the video!

Hi sir can the bad pcv valve cause oil to leak from turbo and valve cover?
Valve cover yes, that's how I found out mine was bad. Replaced it a year ago and it started leaking again and even caused timing chain cover to leak as well
I tried the balloon test on a new aftermarket valve. The valve still leaks.
New from Honda - the air is leaking (the balloon is deflated). I think it should be so.
@@СейчасМинутку Are you saying you bought a new valve from Honda and it leaked?
@@NextLevelAutoDiagnostics Yes, indeed, he lets it pass in both Yes, he skips in both directions, but in one direction more in the other less. From the collector side approx10% ,cylinder block side approx. 90% ,also works the valve bought on Aliexpress
Thank you!
You dont need the balloon or the pump. Just blow in both ends to check function.
It's a good way to explain the function in a video, so a new car guy understands.
how can i remove a stuck pcv that wont loosen? on a subaru forester? ty

Should have changed my pvc valve on my holden!she's leaking oil bad..
The pcv valve for my 2001 F 150 is $2.49. I just replace mine.
What’s with the surface rust on that front rotor? 😆 I thought this car was in an indoor garage…
I just bought a 2017 Hyundai sonata I change oil sparks plugs and pcv valve and the oil light came on when breaking I drain the oil and only 1 1/2 quart on it so it burns 3 1/2 quarts in less than 2k miles ,why?
My wife had the same issue with her car. Hyundai had a recall to replace those motors due to the oil consumption issue.
@tecitez16 i sold mine .
Hi there can you please tell me where is the hades free phone microphone located on Mercedes W204 C250 2012 thanks
No need for a balloon, use your mouth, blow it from one side, the other side won't allow it if its working PCV. 👍👍
