Hello, First post. I do more reading in forum than posting.

Edit: just realized I missed spelled PCV Valve, not sure how to change thread Heading.. I did post this late..

Finishing up replacing Valve Gaskets, Spark Plugs and PCV on my 2004 RX330. But for the life of me I can not find the Torque for the PCV. Im putting in a new one and the threads are covered in Thread seal tape. Im using Haynes Manual, even has quite a bit of info discussing its function and testing, but no torque.

I searched these forums threads and no luck. Or perhaps some one could point out I missed it.

Thanks you guys for your help.

If I could be of any help to you guys with changing the Valve Gaskets, please ask questions. Ive done my Land Cruiser valve covers, so had an idea what I would be in for. One thing that seems debatable is taking off the windshield cowl, I felt it was a must and I would recommend even with spark plugs, though it could be done with out. A little extra work for less frustration is worth it...

Next month I will be doing the timing belt, water pump and any thing else in that path..

 

Searched a couple other forums and with out getting my the exact vehicle Looks to be 20lb.

I should have taken a picture of the PCV valve, it was the dirtiest I have seen, the RX is just over 200k miles.

Thanks
Aaron
