Hello all,
I'm having an oil leak issue with my '96 LX 450. Currently it has 480k miles on it and I just replaced the PCV Valve and hoses with this PCV Valve Kit. Before, the car would leak here or there and burn oil and I would need to put in a quart of oil every 2k miles or so. I had the oil changed 1.5k miles ago and filled it. After replacing the PCV Valve and hoses, I noticed that I am losing oil at a faster rate, and noticing puddles of oil vs just a couple drips on the floor.
Did I get a bad PCV Valve or install it improperly? I read in another forum that since my car has been driving with a bad PCV Valve for awhile, that I messed it up by putting in a new one. Any help/insight helps.
