venom00 · 06-30-2009, 05:15 PM

I have attached a picture of my valve cover off my 93 5sfe was wondering how you get the circled thing off ???? I dont want to just yank it and tear it up....

Very tricky coz it snaps in place. I remember pulling it off my mom's camry in the past. Try to pry it

venom00 · 06-30-2009, 06:10 PM

A lil bit of WD-40 will help it release.

masagsxr · 06-30-2009, 10:46 PM

Again, be very careful if you are re-using it. The plastic piece is probably already crunchy and will break right off easily. Yup, I broke one off in the past hahahahahaaa...

Looks good

You'll want to replace that PCV valve eventually or get a new gasket for it. Once you remove it, it starts to leak oil.

And if it's never been replaced, hey, why not?
