pcv part numbers

#2875

built, not bought
does anybody know the car quest part number for the pcv valve on the syclone? they cannot cross reference the delco or gm number. the only thing they can come up with is 4.3 Z code pcv which is # V194. Autozone, Advance, Pep Boys and Napa are no help. The dealer in winchester is crap and wants me to buy 10 at $5 a pop because they don't stock them and there are 10 in a package; this is the norm for these guys, not surprising. Anyway V194 from carquest has a spring which holds the diaphram down and the origional ones (E on bottom) didn't have an internal spring or they were broken. Any help would be appreciated.

have that bookmarked and knew those numbers; in my situation they are worthless unless i am buying from the internet from gmpartsdirect or pace or anybody else that will charge $15 for shipping.

Go to your closest GMC dealer and they will get you the right PCV.
Messing with any of those stores you listed and you are gonna get the wrong part.

Its not like $6 from the dealer is gonna kill you.
if it is you bought the wrong vehicle.

AC Delco 799c is the only PCV I'd recommend even trying.

not to be rude but are you guys reading my first post? i know both the AC and GM part numbers. if i buy from the dealer i have to buy 10 so multiply your number by 8 and that is the amount of money i waste because the dealership sucks.

I dont think so.

If you order from gmpartsdirect.com you have to buy 10.
If you go to a local dealer go into the parts department and ask for 2 pcv valves part # 799c they do not make you buy 10.
If they do Id either talk to mgmt or go to another dealer.

The mail order places do because they dont want the stock sitting on their shelves.

I buy them 2 or 4 at a time at my local dealer with no problems.
Half the time they are on the shelf. Only once diod they take a day to get them and even then I only bought 2.

Like you said, by the time you pay shipping you have negated the savings by ordering online.

I had the same problem at the dealership (the one near me sucks by the way). They told me it was a non stock item and they were going to make me buy all frikin 10 of them.I found a dealership 50 miles away that had 2 of them. Probably wasted the same ammount in gas as the valves would have costed, but what the hell it was a nice day. :)
