PCV Valve Replacement 1982 22R

Chas,

I've got an electronic 1985 Factory Service Manual that I could email you; however, I was not able to find where it shows how to remove the PCV valve.

If interested in the manual, you or others can contact me here:

I have a service manual- but it just says it should pull out. If your manual has anything else, please email me @ snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com

#1: Make sure you have a new grommet on hand before you start!

I had the same problem on my '88 22R. I finally used a hacksaw blade and cut the grommet (I cut it parallel to the valve cover). I was then able to use a small pair of wire cutters to break the grommet in half and remove the PCV valve. I managed to fish out one part of the old grommet, but the other half is still in there (two years later) and hasn't caused any problems.

The grommet got so hard over the years, cutting was the only to remove the valve.

Thanks tom, I am going to do the same, except I am going to remove the valve cover because it is leaking oil and needs a new gasket anyway. Thanks all.

It was too big: 60 MB.

If you or anyone else on here would like to download it, I'll keep it on here for a week or so before deleting it:

Worst case scenario: removing the valve cover on a 22r is not exactly a huge deal. Heck, it's a good excuse for a valve adjustment.

Thanks, Joe. I was looking for a FSM for my pickup. I used to have a copy, but could not find it on any of my HDs.

I just read your alternator post.

I came here to copy the link to the service manual and send that to you, but it looks like you've already done your homework.

Glad it helped! ~Joe

Thanks anyways!! There used to be poster from Nova Scotia, that would post links to Toyota related pages on the web. I was trying to find him, but the NG server only goes back a year.

i had the same problem with a 22r from an 83 that I was rebuilding... it only takes like 2 min to pull the 4 nuts off and take off the valve cover, once its out just get a large punch and put it in the pcv valve and knock it out.... worked pritty good for me.... if your anywhere near victoria bc i've probubly got an extra valve cover or two if you wanna just buy a new one.
