PCV Valve Replacement
Morning everyone.
Just wondering if anyone could give me some information about replacing the pcv valve, and removing the intake manifold to do so. Also, information on replacing the fuel filter would be very appreciated as well. |

morning!
no need to remove intake - its tricky to replace, but no too difficult. check this: http://www.subaru-svx.net/photos/files/How-To/1155.htm also do a search for "PCV" for more tips and to see what you're getting into - some claim with specialty pliers its a 10 minute job. you will need a 19mm crow's-foot wrench otherwise. fuel filter: http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...er+replacement i would clamp the hose as suggested in this thread. be careful not to damage the hose. put a scrap piece of hose or rubber around the fuel filter hose and clamp it off with some vise grips. i disco'd my fuel pump AND let it sit for half a day, and it still squirted out a small shot of gasoline - right onto my headlight, of course. instant little spider-cracks in the plastic. most expensive fuel filter change i ever did!!! this first search is free, next time i'll have to charge you! go to the "Personal Lockers" section and go to the "How-To" locker for some good tips with pics, and don't forget to use the 'ol Network search button. hope that helps.
