you can't get this pcv valve at an auto parts store. its a special one that twist and locks in. the valve itself is not bad. as i stated it is leaking around the oring. i took it out and checked, cleaned it and reinstalled it.this valve doesnt just push into a grommet like they usually do. i just wondered if anyone w/ the 4.0 had this problem.
