How do I remove the PCV valve without breaking something? It has plastic tabs that go over the valve.

Hi,

The PCV valve should screw in and out of the valve cover. See pics below. Are you seeing something different?

If you are, could you take a pic and upload it for me to see?

Let me know.

Take care,

Joe

This is what it looks like it doesn’t screw in it has really thick tabs that go over it looks like it will break easily.

Hi,

Is it possible to get a pic of the tabs? The manual is showing the screw in one I attached.

Let me know.
