PCV valve and you can buy one for a CA18DE and use it on your motor.

FICD. It bumps the idle up when you turn on the A/C. I don't have A/C, so if you can't find one for sale (any Pulsar NX SE w/ a CA will have one) I could pull mine off the AAC and fill the hole. It would be a real pain for me to do, so try to find one somewhere else, but if you can't and you want to keep your A/C (if you ditch the A/C you don't need it) lemmie know!

i think its closed, and i am not gonna have ac, so what does this mean?

[biosehnsucht]

yes, FICD, not PCV.

its normally closed so its not going to cause a problem if its broken off. mine is too, I have a replacement but until I get AC hooked up no point installing it.

Yes, it is the FICD seloniod, Any nissan engine has one, KA engine or pulsar ca16de or ca18de, as well as VG30DE/TT engines, all have the same sensor which you can use.

Most of the CA18det engines that I get usually have this sensor is broken, as when they put the engine in the container in Japan, they put a board on the top of it so they can put more engines on the top, so since this part is the highest point of the Ca18det engine, it tends to break.

so i dont need to replace it? should i disconnect it from the harness or just leave it to dangle?

thanks

[pulsar gtr]

If you aren't going to replace it, I would definitely remove it from the harness plug as it has 12V when ever the engine is running.

Oppppz, sorry about that mistake.

Congradulations, you're number 1,000,001 (including me) in the list of people who got a CA clip with a broken FICD. As others said though, its no big deal.

[sdtouge]
