Fram FV385 Positive Crankcase Ventilation PCV Valve

The Fram FV385 is an OE-grade replacement Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve designed for a direct-fit installation. Featuring a straight nipple direction and a plastic barb mount type with a male tube connector inlet, this valve integrates seamlessly into compatible engine ventilation systems.

The PCV valve plays a critical role in engine health and emissions compliance. It routes blow-by gases from the crankcase back into the intake manifold to be burned, preventing pressure buildup and reducing harmful emissions. A worn or clogged PCV valve can lead to oil leaks, excessive oil consumption, rough idling, stalling, and even a Check Engine Light.

Key Features:

• OE-grade replacement PCV valve
• Straight nipple orientation for simplified routing
• Plastic barb (hose barb) inlet connection — no grommet required
• Helps maintain emissions compliance
• Sold individually

Service Tip: Remove the PCV valve and gently shake it — if it does not rattle, the valve is likely clogged or stuck and should be replaced. As a general maintenance item, PCV valves should be inspected and replaced approximately every 30,000 miles or per your vehicle manufacturer's recommended service interval.
