    Hi there,

    I've been looking for a new PCV valve for my 98 civic D16Y7.
    Honda wants $25, and the local parts store wants $3.47.

    What is the difference between these parts? Since the action of
    the PCV valve is fairly simple, does it matter if I use the
    one from the parts store?

    I know there is a big quality difference between honda and
    parts store parts, but in this case, does it matter?

    Don't buy it aftermarket. I have a 98 DX D16Y7 also, and I got one of those
    ($4) 2 years ago, and is a PITA to put on and remove, it's bigger than the
    OEM. First time I took it back but it was the correct one according to the
    computer and book. I just ordered one from a dealer online ($9) and what a
    difference, it was really easy to put it in place. My 2 cents.
