Differences between PCV Valves
Is there any appreciable difference between PCV valve brands? I wanted one of the higher end brands of PCV valves, but my local Advanced Auto Parts was out of stock, so I used the Purolator brand.
Thank you in advance, CCM |

Re: Differences between PCV Valves
As long as you don't have oil blow-by contamination on your MAF, IACT, and Air filter.

Re: Differences between PCV Valves
The PCV valve is a check valve, it's job is to allow PCV gas and to block oil.
During the Air filter replacement, did you see any oil on your air filter? |
