2007 Toyota Corolla PCV Valve Servicing

[@partyman6666]

Hey man... if you ever do this again, i'd recommend using brake parts cleaner instead of fuel injector cleaner. I used to use fuel injector cleaner about 8-10 years ago but found that it works very poorly in comparison to brake cleaner and removes almost nothing from the inside of the PCV, which sucks because you can't get in there with anything to scrub it like you can with the outside exposed portions. Toyota almost always uses steel/aluminum on their PCV valves so the brake parts cleaner won't damage anything and it really does a significantly better job breaking up carbon buildup. Spray a bunch into it with the bottom blocked off by your finger (obviously with a rubber/nitrile glove on), let it sit in there for a few minutes and maybe cover the other end a bit too and shake it around vigorously. You should hear the valve rattling when you do this. When you remove your fingers, dirty brake cleaner fluid will come out, particularly if you shake it. Repeat this a few times and it should be as good as new provided that it wasn't completely seized up beforehand. Basically keep doing this until you get clear fluid out after shaking it out.

Many thanks @partyman6666 for the detailed advice. I used carburetor cleaner which is also a valve cleaner (according to the inscription on it). Next time I will follow your advice. Thanks again.

I have a question, will a brand new pcv valve be better than cleaning the current one or will that cause disruptions?? Also i had fuse bow issues, at least 7 fuses were blown, should i get all brand new ones including an 100A fuse??​@SonnyIbibo

Hi Does this engine has EGR valve?

[@SonnyIbibo]

Toyotas' equipped with recirculation system

[@dryrivercatfishing5465]

It’s only $5, why go through all the trouble of cleaning it

[@joelfranco4757]

That valve cost like $8 only

If you are mute just mute the phone and be altogether mute.

Really? Anyone with kids has expenses and just lend credence to a very quick and virtually free fix.
