Nicely done. I like your attention to detail - like which way to put in the washer. I don't think it matters but shows you are a thinking man. Gotta love the factory workers with a sense of humor putting the clamp on upside down!
THANK you for such a helpful video! I spent a good while trying to locate my PCV the other day, saw the upside down spring clip, and let out a big "Grrrr..." I was about to give up until someone sent me your video and I saw you had the same issue. Thanks for the encouragement to give it a try!
I would go with the OEM PCV valve from the dealership. It does not cost much more and then you know you're getting a good part. My Lexus one was 15 bucks vs like 5 dollars from the part store but I would not trust the cheap one.
I always like to know the torque when I use a crush washer. The dealer said that the torque on the PVC valve is 33 foot pounds. Thanks for the great video.
The washer/gasket is the exact same thing as the crush washer usd on the oil pan drainplug. I decided since this is being replaced at 162,000 miles, we could afford to use the OEM parts from the dealer even if it was $40. I was hoping a how to video would include the torque spec.
So I did this job today. Guess what??? The clamp was on upside down too! Actually is easy to spin it around with your fingers. Not a great deal of clamping force there.
Scotty sent me here just replaced the valve on my 2014 crv the old one was much dirtier than yours with a lot of burnt oil all around it.. hoping this will solve the issue of my engine burning oil
Honda never has these in the maintenance schedule for any of their cars which I think is ridiculous for such a cheap part. In my experience every 60,000 miles would be a nice conservative replacement interval. I had one go bad on my Accord and it makes a mess.
Hello Sir. Is that the same as the gasket oil drain plug washer that you use when changing the engine oil? Thank you and i really appreciate your effort to show us the particular part number of that Gasket/ Washer.
If the valve is stuck closed the crankcase will develop high pressure and start blowing oil through every seal, o-ring, gasket, and passed the rings. You will notice it immediately at the valve cover. It ain't pretty. And the engine will consume oil.
Any idea how much torque as per Mfg for us using a torque wrench? I was thinking either 29 or 30 as this would be same as for my oil drain bolt on 07' Civic Si Sdn and 14' Civic CRV-EX.
@@starastronomer Well done video very simplistic... I am surprised local mechanic or Honda never recommend this. What is the biggest difference you notice after change? Better mileage / better performance? I am also doing on the 2014 Honda CR-V with 106K.
@@starastronomer many new designs dont have pcv anymore. some just have a small orifice. some have a small reservoir (more like a catch can design) but anyway it is good idea to get it out and clean it since it is so oily already. may get sticky inside even tho it still rattles. dont discard the old one. just soak it in carb cleaner and it can be reused next time. i guess it costs more than $20 for honda part
@@starastronomer I've run into way too many problems over the years due to over & under tightened fasteners. In my younger days I was strong enough I'd break a 3/8 bolt without noticing it got tight, now I'm so weak I have absolutely no feel for tight or loose. I read in a couple places the torque spec is 33' lbs. Thanks for an excellent video

The washer has the same part number as the genuine engine oil drain plug.
Thank you. The dealer told me they will change the pcv valve for $700!!!!
No way 😳 You sure it wasn't $70.00 to replace? You're welcome.
@@starastronomer
Actually it's $700 with two zeros.
@mohammedaldhahbi5433 That's pure robbery! They should be reported.
Nice, Scotty Kilmer's channel sent me here, "How to fix a car engine that's burning oil for $10" !
*IAC* Well, thank you Scotty :) And as you see it is a very simple change.
The only problem is OEM parts are $43+ out the door.

So did it help?
Did it help?
thanks for sharing, it was very useful and very good detail with the washer.

Best and most clear video on how to do this job. Thank you.🫡

barack obama Indeed, never hurts to replace sooner than later.
Replacing my granddaughter's at 162,000 miles. Over $43 with the crush washer and sales tax. I'm hoping this might reduce her oil consumption.
Thanks you so much,i did already following every step of your video.
Jose maria Mejia Mendoza Great to hear, thanks.
So helpful and well explained
THANKS S Villeda.
That washer is same to use on oil drain plug.
yes same washer.
BTW, I never replace those washers with new since they are just flat stamped metal. They are not the crush type which can only be used once.
why are you replacing it and is it something that needs to be replaced periodically?
Very detailed, some pthers Just talk about the valve and nota where is it or how to instal it. But of course I'll suscribe. From MEXICO.
Thank you so much!
Ummm, no RTV on the
Threads????
Obrigado amigo, vc é um amigo
You're welcome @robertofabri7420
What was the reason did u have to replace it ??
Was it leaking air while you hit gas padel ?
Thanks
great video! thanks!
Thank You Bob!
Hi there,
I replaced mine too, but then i saw another video that says hose should be replaced to, i didn;t and neither did you. Should we?
You certainty can if you want. Check the hose, is it still in good shape? Mine was and I left it be.
How often should I replace this?
Are these cars really so easy to work on?
Why change the PCV valve? It is a 2014 and it is bad already? My car has only 65k mile.
My granddaughter's 2014 gas 162,000 miles on it and consumes a bit of oil.
Why on earth would you not re-use the old washer? It's not a "crush" washer.
I always like to replace them.
@@starastronomer OK, but my question was "why", when it's completely unnecessary?
Actually it is the same washer as on the oil pan drainplug.
Hello Sir. Is that the same as the gasket oil drain plug washer that you use when changing the engine oil? Thank you and i really appreciate your effort to show us the particular part number of that Gasket/ Washer.
Hon28 Ney28 THANK YOU. Not sure as I have a Fumoto oil drain valve. The dealer would be able to check the numbers.
Yes it is.
Why replace pcv
This is a good read: www.oreillyauto.com/diy-diagnose-and-replace-a-pcv-valve
BTW, it doesn't hurt to just periodically change parts like this to stay on top of maintenance items.

If the valve is stuck closed the crankcase will develop high pressure and start blowing oil through every seal, o-ring, gasket, and passed the rings. You will notice it immediately at the valve cover. It ain't pretty. And the engine will consume oil.
Did you have an oil burning issue?
ExtremeRecluse No, just changed it.

Aaron Bell No, I just gave it a firm "snug". No issues. You could ask the dealer if you wanted a specific torque.

so oily... was it burning oil?
The valve had over 97,000 miles on it and it still worked fine. The dealer told me when I got the washer they rarely change them.
@@starastronomer many new designs dont have pcv anymore. some just have a small orifice. some have a small reservoir (more like a catch can design)

Do you know the part no. of pcv valve?
Kan Hu Don't know Honda's part number. The one I put on is aftermarket.
Honda part number 17130-RBB-A01
If you don’t want to change it, just clean it with a solvent and put it back on
@@lenbata correct. about $25 from the stealer
What's the torque spec?
Don't know. I just gave it a nice tightening, making sure NOT to overdo it on a cold engine. No issues.
@@starastronomer I've run into way too many problems over the years due to over & under tightened fasteners.

Why you use a cheep PCV valve to replace the old one and you recommend to get the washer from Honda ? l😂 what a genius 😆
WHO let you out of the funny farm? It's obvious you are a troll and can't comprehend anything past a first grade education.
