PCV valve location
#11
Hmm. My gasket was new...
I remember that I put the gasket on the heads and not on the manifold before I put all together. That could be an issue?!
Steam leak test did not show any leaks.
Anyway, I have toi check this.
What I am curious about...
On every picture the left valve cover looks like the one with the pcv valve on top of the cover.
But mine looks different and I don't have a pcv... The picture was taken before I took all apart

When you service head gaskets, you're supposed to change everything while you're in there. Just buy a kit .... valve seals, intake gasket, fuel o-rings, ... everything. When you take something apart, don't reuse seals , or else you'll be back in there again soon.
Mist some starting fluid, or propane, or even water around the bank 1 manifold and see if the idle changes. Or smoke it out.

Also a steam leak test doesn't show any results. Yesterday I took out the manifold. Just waiting on some new parts.
Heads a reworked last year. Valves, valve seats etc are all new.
I hope that the problem was the gasket.
I also hat some P0332 codes from time to time. Checked the sensors. Both are ok and show up the correct reading

I will hope that the new sealing will solve that problem.

Just to follow up on that issue...
MAF is off, after changing the intake gasket. For most of the time.
But: I have still a P0101 in my storage. And you can feel that there is something "wrong". I have a lack of power, when there is a steep uphill or when I have to accellerate.
If I clear the code, the engine runs good. But the code pops of very shortly. Without MIL...
2 days ago the MIL was on again.
With this reading. Is there any sign that there still is a leak? I can't read the trim data...
Thanks for helping me out!
