so this is my 1.6 HDI Peugeot Partner, the symptoms that I get is a slight rough
idle from from cold start it's like almost like a misfire a few shakes and a
puff of bluish smoke that clears within 10 seconds or so with relatively large
puff of smoke
so all sorts of problems that that that could be valve guides bent rods stem seal
valves and so on but one of the things that could be the PCV valve that's
behind here so this is really the the the PCV valve on the 1.6 HDI engines so
it could be on a completely open position stuck on open or broken inside
membrane so gasses, oil vapor could really go in the in the intake and
then burnt off, they condense and then burn off so I decided to really replace
the the membrane or at least look at it and and potentially replace it's not too
difficult or get on that to replace and see if that if that helps is fairly
cheap and easy fix if if that's the case
lift underneath here these pins these numerous spins around and basically lift
that and then replace the membrane so one has to be very careful not really
break these pins otherwise this would not close and push on the valve so it's
fairly fiddly fiddly work feel it from all sides
well that's what should not happen but I have a spare cap, so it's very easy to break
these okay here so we're moving somewhere
I'm blocking the camera a bit, I'm trying to do it without blocking it, but it is fairly difficult
Probably can break them all off and replaced it with a newer one it's probably the
easiest option
there we go, well three broken but should be able to
come out
okay so that is how it looks like inside so I broke these but I have a spare of
that one, so I can put a new one and let's see
it looks pretty intact actually fairly intact there's nothing
really going on so I'll replace the cap
basically one can lift it it's a bit oily so I can't quite but it looks like this
there are no splits or anything as far as I can see so that's actually pretty good
quite a few oily bits and pieces
I have a spare rocker cover that's really the rocker cover, brand new so
just in case I I broke this one and I broke the pins that's what I
was thinking, so I tried on those and this was actually fairly easy to do
because it's off the car so you can easily take it so the new one
it's slightly more so this is the new one and this is the old one not much
difference this is slightly harder, slightly harder plastic seems the other
slightly this the new one is softer so I'll replace it anyway and so
this is the spring mechanism that keeps it slightly open
I could replace the spring as well so that's what I'll do mop up around here
replace the spring in the and diaphragm and push this back on to click and
straight replacement, okay I cleaned it as much as possible the oil so I'll put
the new spring in and then the diaphragm on, it has to be pushed on all sides
and then clip on the this new cap, clip it like this basically
push until it clicks everywhere and that's
replaced but it wasn't broken anyway so blue gasses on, start up is
probably valve stem seals and I'll have to see what I will do about that so
thank you for watching, you might need to , but is you
want to replace that one you might need to buy a whole cover and replace that
one or if you want take the seals out so it's the different bolts and then you
slide it out, so thank you for watching not much of a help
