Well, just finished changing that XFSGXX! PCV Valve!!
What a pain in the ass!!
Getting it out with the crow claw was not too bad, but getting it back in was a disaster!!
I had to make a holding tool out of heavy copper wire, and then start the threads slowly with the tip of a screw driver, then out the hose on!!
Hope this will be good for a few miles!!
Thanks to all for their help!!
Way to go! Congratulations. Your next test will be "Replacing the Spark Plugs."
I had to replace my PCV valve, using a boxed end wrench. Talking about a pain. There ain't a lot of "throw" room in there.
Not to mention the "disorientation" and confusion of "righty tighty, lefty loosey."
