Airtex 6P1017 PCV Valve Positive Crankcase Ventilation Valve

The Airtex 6P1017 PCV valve (positive crankcase ventilation valve) is a replacement emissions-control part. It is a one-way valve that routes blow-by gases from the engine crankcase back into the intake so they are burned in the combustion chamber. This keeps crankcase pressure under control and helps the engine meet emissions standards.

Key Features:

• Threaded (screw-in) style PCV valve
• Helps reduce crankcase pressure, oil contamination and sludge buildup
• Supports emissions compliance and efficient engine operation
• Airtex part number 6P1017, also sold under the Wells (WVE by NTK) brand

A worn or clogged PCV valve can cause rough idle, poor fuel economy, increased oil consumption and a check engine light. Replacing it at regular maintenance intervals helps keep the engine running smoothly.
