Thanks so much for posting this video!!! I would have never guessed which
PCV valve I would have needed or located it if it weren’t for this video!!!
Rock on 6 speed!!!

Thanks for the video. i have an 07 ram1500 with a 4.7 and you are right
about it being tucked under the cowl. i already have the new pcv valve but
have yet to replace it bc of where it is located, plus i have the 08 intake
manifold and egr valve installed which is going to make it even harder.
hopefully i can tackle it soon.ed

rael cool I was just wondering about pcv.

Remove all the plastic covers, then you should see the PCV tube that runs
over top of the intake manifold, follow it to the left side of the manifold
(when looking directly at it, not the left side of the vehicle), keep
following the hose and at the end is the valve, it just threads into the
little housing it sits in. If this isn’t clear, send me a PM, mine won’t
work for some reason

Hi Kurtis, any chance you can show how change the pcv valve on the 2003
crv. I can’t find any info on it.. thanks

Hey 6-speed Dakota great video, I also drive a Dakota with a 4.7 engine and
have done alot of my own service thanks to the help of your videos. i have
an issue that maybe you or someone with a Dakota could comment on. My 2006
R/T drives but all the lights in the dash are on and none of the gauges
work, I had a problem with anti-theft before but was able to reset it by
leaving the key in the on position for 15 minutes. This doesn’t work now
though. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do I know you from somewhere, very few people call me by my first name on
YouTube, everyone else calls me 6speed lol

Thanks so much for posting this! I don’t think your motor was replaced. I
have an ’07 and have seen these on the ’06-’10. I’m going to attempt to
replace mine this weekend and imagine it will be just as much a pain in the
ass. You think I should I run a little anti-seize on the PCV thread?
Wouldn’t it help for future replacement?

6speeddakota . says:

I’ll look it up on the Mitchell1 database at school and get back to you on
Tuesday after the long weekend. I can’t access it off campus unfortunately

6speeddakota . says:

Don’t put anti-seize on the threads, the threads are coated in thread
sealant and if you coat it in anti-seize, you risk oil seepage. Plus the
thread sealant is an ok lubricant anyway. Just work methodically and don’t
rush it, you should be just fine, a giant pair of channelock pliers will
make this job a little easier if you don’t have a beast crescent wrench
like me. Also do this job with the motor cold, it sucks when you burn
yourself on the heater hoses

Shawn F says:

Thanks for taking the time to look into this Kurtis. I really appreciate
it.. All the best

First, try disconnecting the battery cable, and let the vehicle sit
disconnected for about 20 minutes, this will allow the computer to fully
power down, and it will wipe the keep alive memory clean. Check the fuse
panel for a blown fuse to one of the computers. Also make sure that the
chip inside the key isn’t broken or cracked, that would cause the
anti-theft system to freak out. Other than that, I can’t really think of
anything off the top of my head, it doesn’t seem like a common problem

Shawn F says:

Thanks Kurtis, I know where it is located on my crv but just not sure what
parts need to be removed in order to get at it…not sure if grill comes
off etc…Look forward to your response on Tues…Happy Easter
