PCV valve... 19mm crow's foot?

Just to be sure, is the PCV valve that large that it fits a 19mm crow's foot? I went to get one, and I'd never seen a PCV that big, and in the picture it doesn't look that big. Just double-checking. Thanks.

It sounds about right, but you could just go and pick up the replacement PCV valve and compare it with your 19mm socket to be sure.

19mm's correct.

I just used my wrench and LOTS of patience.

I used my crow's foot AND left a lot of skin from my knuckles under the intake manifold.

the only think that would work on my PCV was a closed (box-end) wrench. The valve was on so tight that any open wrench or crow's foot would have just stripped it.
