PCV Valve location?

Skargon · July 16th, 2011, 06:05 PM

Where is the PCV Valve located that I use when applying a Seafoam product into my Engine?

1998 3.8 V6 obviously..

mine is right behind the oil cap on the valve cover. in that picture i see it. unhook it from the valve cover and use only 1/3 of it little at a time, let it sit for a good 10 mins then start the car.

just a sec and i will post pictures of my bay.

the one on the right high lighted in read is the break booster. i didn't use that one, i used the other one that is high lighted in read behind my oil cap.

I'm gonna grab a can of Seafoam when I go pick my wife up from work, and then Enjoy the Smoke Show. Lol

So if I use more than 1/3 in the Intake; will it hurt more than help?

I was thinking 1/2 Intake, 1/2 Gas, Because I just did an oil change.

i selected it in red, pull it off at the valve cover. when car is running put your finger over the hose end of it and you should feel it sucking. if not you got srs issues LOL

I would say just do 1/3. The more you try to put in, the more you're going to burn up before you shut off the engine (which will pretty much be a waste), and the more likely you are to get impatient and put it in faster which can result in locking up the engine if the Seafoam pools up in the combustion chambers (which can be easily fixed as long as nothing gets bent/broken).

I think ill stick with the 1/3..

He'll just have to throw that last 1/3 can into the oil a day or two before his next oil change

ViperPilot24 · July 18th, 2011, 06:22 PM

So are you supposed to turn the tube over and pour seafoam into the tube or with the sucktion just 'suck' it up into the tube? I was wondering about doing this myself. I occasionally use SF in my gas tank to just clean out the injectors.

Green_6er · July 18th, 2011, 06:26 PM

u just let it suck it up
