Detailed Product Description

The Standard Ignition PCV Valve V215 is a critical component of the crankcase ventilation system, designed to regulate and redirect blow-by gases from the engine crankcase back into the intake manifold. This helps reduce emissions and maintain engine efficiency. The valve’s angled nipple orientation allows for optimal hose routing in tight engine compartments, particularly in Buick Bonneville, Pontiac Grand Prix, and other compatible models. The absence of a connector means this valve is intended for direct hose attachment, simplifying installation and reducing potential leak points.
