Standard Ignition V246 PCV Valve

The Standard Ignition V246 is a complete PCV valve assembly for crankcase ventilation service on a wide range of import and domestic applications. It uses a push-on attachment method, a straight nipple orientation, and a black plastic body for direct replacement service where the original valve has worn, clogged, or lost proper flow control.

Key Features

• PCV valve complete assembly for crankcase ventilation repair
• Push-on attachment method with one hose connector
• Straight nipple orientation for straightforward hose routing
• Black plastic construction
• No cap, gasket, connector, or mounting bracket included
• Inlet diameter: 0.22 in. (5.588 mm)
• Outlet diameter: 0.15 in. (3.81 mm)

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition V246 is built for emission control service in the crankcase ventilation system, where the PCV valve helps regulate vapors routed from the engine crankcase. This part number is used across applications including Honda Civic, Mazda 626, and Ford Probe, along with additional coverage for Suzuki XL-7 and other listed vehicles. The V246 is also a direct-reference replacement for part numbers such as 0E30113890 and PCV316 for the same application.

Use Standard Ignition V246 when replacing a worn PCV valve on vehicles such as 1996-2000 Honda Civic, 1983-1992 Mazda 626, or 1989-1992 Ford Probe. The complete assembly format and push-on design support a clean service replacement where the original valve uses a straight hose connection.

What It Helps Address

• Rough idle caused by a restricted PCV valve
• Excess crankcase pressure from poor ventilation flow
• Oil vapor buildup in the crankcase ventilation system
• Vacuum leaks related to a deteriorated valve connection
• Emission control faults tied to PCV system wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm hose size and connection style before installation. The V246 uses a push-on attachment with a straight nipple and no connector, so the hose should seat fully on the inlet and outlet ends. Inspect the surrounding PCV hose for cracking, soft spots, or blockage before installing the new valve. This part fits 1996-2000 Honda Civic, 1983-1992 Mazda 626, and 1989-1992 Ford Probe, with additional coverage for 2002 Suzuki XL-7 and other listed applications.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies this PCV valve as a service replacement part for emission control and crankcase ventilation applications. The V246 is specified with defined inlet and outlet diameters, material, and attachment style to support accurate parts matching during repair.
