Where is it, and how often should it be changed?I did a search and only came up with locations on the F50 and one of the Nissans. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Here it is..... id replace it every so often, one of those things to replace whenever you feel the need..... Id just start with cleaning it so it doesnt stick... not reall ymuch to "fail" on them.

Thanks Wes. With 90k miles.....I think it's time. Did I miss seeing this on the factory maintance schedule? I've always concentrated on the fluids, guess I'd better go back and read the schedule.

you'll note that there's 2. i did the right one [easy] at 81k last summer. was just starting to feel heavy. i wimped on changing the left one that day as it was going to take me a while, and i still need to do that.....OCI is the key to keeping pcvs running clean a long time.
