Default How to install new pcv valve

I'm guessing replacing the pcv valve is pretty routine, but I don't have a service manual for my 95 Camry. Anything I need to be aware of when replacing the pcv valve?

Thanks.

Make sure that you replace the grommet as well. I have a 98 Camry 4 cyl. and when I pulled the old PCV valve and put the new one in, the grommet broke, the top half on the new PCV valve, the other half down inside the valve cover.

I tried to get it out from the valve cover, no luck. I just left it in there, got a new grommet and put the new PCV valve in. Car runs ok.

always check that the grommet is still soft before you place new one. my rule of thumb, i change pcv every 30k grommet evey 60k. they get brittle. and you don't want it break off.
