Detailed Description

Standard Ignition V296 is a replacement PCV valve built for crankcase ventilation service where a direct-fit valve assembly is required. The blue and brown plastic body uses a push-on connection and a single hose port sized for 3/8 in. or 10 mm hose, making it a practical service part for vehicles including the Mazda 626, Mazda MX-6, and Dodge Stratus. This part number V296 also cross-references 2-9360 and EV220 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Excess crankcase pressure
• Oil vapor buildup in the crankcase ventilation system
• Rough idle caused by a restricted PCV valve
• Oil contamination from a sticking or worn valve
• Ventilation flow issues in the PCV circuit

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify hose size, inlet and outlet dimensions, and nipple orientation before installation. The push-on design is intended for direct hose connection without a connector, and the complete assembly format helps simplify replacement when servicing the PCV system on applications such as the Mazda Millenia, Mitsubishi Galant, or Chrysler Cirrus. Inspect the hose for hardening, cracking, or oil saturation before installing the new valve.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies emission control components for service replacement use, and V296 is built as a complete PCV valve assembly for the listed applications. Confirm vehicle year, make, and model against the fitment data before ordering.
