    They are just held in with a rubber grommet. Just pull it out (may need a little twisting) and pop in the new one. Easier than an air filter.

    I just changed mine. Nothing noticeable but for a few bucks it was an easy sense of assurance to change out the hose, grommet, and valve.

    Just replaced pcv valve and grommet. The area around my grommet was fairly moist so I'm glad I spent the few bucks to set my mind at ease.
