The valve’s angled nipple orientation facilitates easier installation and hose connection, especially in tight engine compartments. With one hose connector and no additional connector gender, this valve is designed for straightforward replacement in compatible Buick, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac vehicles.

Applications and Problem Solving

This PCV valve is used to address several common engine and emission issues:

• Prevents excessive crankcase pressure that can cause oil leaks
• Reduces engine sludge buildup by venting blow-by gases
• Helps maintain proper air-fuel mixture for efficient combustion
• Minimizes harmful hydrocarbon emissions from the crankcase
• Improves overall engine performance and longevity

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Standard Ignition PCV Valve V195, ensure the angled nipple is oriented correctly to match the hose routing in your vehicle. This valve does not include a connector, so verify that the existing hose fits securely onto the single hose connector. It is recommended to inspect the hose and surrounding components for wear or damage during replacement. Proper installation will help maintain the integrity of the crankcase ventilation system and prevent vacuum leaks.
