3. Wipe sand, dust and other impurities from the
cap to prevent them from entering the system
when the cap is removed.

illustrated and remove it.
5. Pull the valve element straight up and remove
it.
6. Replace the O-ring on the cap with a new
one. Lightly coat the new O-ring with engine oil
before installing it onto the cap.
CAUTION
Be sure to use the O-ring supplied with the new
valve element.
7. Install the new valve element. Always use a
genuine part.
8. Install the cap, turning it by hand in the direction
of the arrow . Continue to turn the cap until it
slightly lifts up and comes to a stop.
CAUTION
Install the cap carefully so that the O-ring will
not be twisted and damaged.
Replacement intervals
Every 10‚000 km
(6‚000 miles)
WARNING
Do not try to replace the PCV valve element
immediately after the engine has stopped as
it is extremely hot and can cause burns.
Allow the engine to cool down sufficiently
before beginning replacement.
