    You shouldn't need to replace the PCV. If it has gone bad, then you can pick one up at your local dealer for about 30.

    Easy to replace. The valve is located at the front side of the intake manifold. Pull the hose and then simply unscrew the valve.

    Get a 1/2" 90 degree push on fitting, make a coupler out of hose, couple the 90 to the PCV then to your braided line to the 90.3

    To the OP...unless you are having problems with the PCV, leave it alone.
