Thanks for the help guys! Legacy-Thats how I stumbled on you guys, I couldn't find one for my make/year in any catalog....short of going right to Subaru. Setright- I'll go start a recon mission under the hood. That 'reverse' style makes sense too, that type system burns the blowby gases better. I've seen it on some aircraft engines. Still has to be some sort of valve though, blowby gases are very dity and gunk stuff up. I've been hot-roding and working on all types of motors since I was a kid...Its gotta have a pcv valve, or some sort of new fangled vent like you guys were saying!? -Dr

Hi Guys! I was surfing along with a Subaru Outback problem and ran into this site....Cooool! Had to sign up! My wife and I have a '01 Outback L.L.Bean (w/ the 3.0 H6 motor)...and since we just moved out here to the country I have been given the responsibility in maintainenance. So far everything has been well explained in the manuals, etc. I find these cars very low maintenance.....but I have one big question.... Where is, or is there, a pcv valve on this engine? I find no reference of it in the maintenance schedules or owner's manual. Is there one? If there is, where is it and how often should I change it? Thanks guys! -Neil a.k.a. DrOutback
