PCV Valve question?(2002 GT)

Do you own research, its not the thread topic. If someone is going to suggest blocking PCV or using breathers I am going to suggest othewise. If you want schooled further I suggest Google or a new thread.Thanks again for the knowledge you have added to this thread.
I don't mind if you dissagree but atleast back it up with something useful.
I've never heard of removing the valve cover to remove the PCV valve. They unscrew, or pull straight out.
I would clean your IAC out and see if that helps, although since you said wandering idle, and not stalling, I would look for a cut vac hose, or a TPS problem.

Edit: Nevermind, I'm not going to argue with you, since it just a waste of bandwidth. Which is exactly what aggrevates me about most of your tech posts.

I have the pull out type, but I have also change them on some cars that you turned it 90 degrees to unlock it then pull it out.

Mine is also the pull out type... I can't see any reason to remove the valve cover in order to replace the PCV

The only thing I can think of is that the metal clip he was talking about was actually the locking mechanism that I was describing. I could see how it would be confusing if you didn't know you only you had to turn it to unlock it.

Yeah, you're probably right. Damn that would suck to go through all that and find out that a 90* turn would have been all you needed to take the PCV out
I'm glad you see through the bickering.... I didn't suggest you do anything to you car, did I?? No. I did not. I told you MY 2002 GT PCV wasn't a pull out type and that I had to pull the cam cover to remove it!!! No 90 degree turn no nothing would remove it topside !!! There was a metal clip holding it in place that would not alow removal of the PCV, Now, I race my GT so proper emmission controls are not of a concern to me. That is why I pulled the PCV, not to replace it but to delete it. Sorry, I though seeing a pic would of helped .. Anyway, clean the IAC, clean whatever. PM me if you still need help without 20 opinions on how to fix a idle problem.
I think jstreet0204 could be of help too!

I hate to throw a wrench in the mix but here she goes...
I have the screw in type. I went to the dealer to get a new one and they changed the design of the elbow coming off of the top. I ended up having to get a whole new pipe from the PCV to the IAC valve. The bends are slightly different and it is also now wrapped in black foam.

I for one am a big supporter of deleting the PCV as all it does is clog-up the intake trac. now my cars not a D/D anymore but what I did was convert mine to a E-vac style, so now all the crankcase vapors are sucked-out thru the exhaust and not into the intake, again mines not a street car. what I did was deleted the EGR stuff but left a small section of the EGR tube in the header. I have a screw on breather on the rightside cam cover and on the leftside cover that nipple goes to a rubber hose, then a 1 way check valve, another hose and then to the shorten EGR tube. air enters the breather on the rightside and vapors are pushed out the driverside elbow and sucked out wth the exhaust, again mine is a drag only car and I do not recommend this to all.........but.......
my 95 gt is bogging out
when im hitting the gas full throttle i hear kinda like misfire after 4,000 rpm's and it feels so slow, i did the cap and rotor,my iac valve was replace for a high idle,fuel filter somebody told me it could be the ignition module or ignition coil i bought the car a month ago and this problem is killing me and the maf sensor was replaced that wasd throwing a code,,,, the car is not throwing any codes right now but it is choking at highway speed after 4,000 rpm.s why is this

It's good you did a search but you have a 95 and this is modular tech. Try your question the 94/95 section and I'm sure you will get some advise.
