Keep your engine's crankcase ventilation flowing the way the factory intended with the Standard Ignition PCV Valve V422. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2004 Volkswagen Beetle (L4-1.9L), 1999-2004 Volkswagen Golf (L4-1.9L), and 1999-2004 Volkswagen Jetta (L4-1.9L), taking over the PCV job on these applications.
A positive crankcase ventilation valve manages crankcase ventilation by routing blow-by gases out of the crankcase and back into the intake to be re-burned. It works as a vacuum-controlled valve, metering flow so the crankcase stays properly ventilated across idle and load.
Interchange: Manufacturer part number V422.
What does this PCV valve do?
