[QUOTE="72c10, post: 445333, member: 19352"] Damn my 07's old PCV valve. 👍 To this write up, Chris. I have 128,000 on my JKU, bought it at 118,000 in 2020. Don't know if the PCV valve was ever replaced (although it seemed it was operational when I finally got it out. The ball/insert was moving around. I tried the zip tie method...twice. No dice for this stubborn ass. I finally just took a pair of channel locks and tried to leverage it on the intake with a long screw driver. Didn't work either. That damn thing was stuck in there... but, there was no turnin' around. Finally I just dug a thin flathead screw driver in the hole and pried up and wiggled side to side... Worked - after 45 damn minutes! Half the seal came out and used a pick for the other half that was stuck in the port. THAT SEAL was no longer pliable on the bottom half. It felt like it was ABS plastic. So, maybe it was the original???? Replaced her with a Mopar updated PVC and maybe I'll get up to 25lbs more torque 🤣. Used a 16mm long socket and extension to push the new one in. Manually pushed in with a breeze. [ATTACH type="full"]120600[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
