I have an 00 pontiac grand am 3.4l with 338k miles. The intake is getting covered more in oil. Pcv valve and tube were changed with no difference. Obviously its not worth fixing this engine but it gets me to work and home reliably.
When installing an oil catch can, do i insert the inlet hose into the pcv valve or am i supposed to remove the valve and insert and seal the hose into the valve cover where the pcv valve sits?
Thank you!
no, keep your pcv valve. it sounds like you're getting a lot of blow by.
Will i need to remove the pcv valve
keep your pcv valve.
Yes there's a lot of blowby. I can add upper cylinder lubricant that helps but id like to cut down the amount of oil going into the manifold because of it. Will i need to remove the pcv valve or does the hose connect to the pcv valve.
