1. Remove seat, front fenders and gas tank. Make sure fuel petcock is in “ON” or “RES” position. If it is in the “PRI” position it will allow fuel through it.

VW 1998 Jetta GLX or VR6 GTI PCV valve Modification
June 11th, 2008 · No Comments
Materials:
(1) Plastic Epoxy (fast setting type) I used Loctite Plastic Epoxy (sets in 7 minutes)
(2) 1 foot of ¾ inch (ID) radiator/heater hose. You only need about 3” but this is the minimum you could buy at the Autozone.
(3) Heater connectors (see below) I got mine from the Autozone, but you could use a similar item I guess. These fit perfectly in the existing hole on the valve which is handy… just as an fyi. (Help part number: 47065)
(4) Minimum Two hose clamps sized for the heater hose. You can get more if you want to clamp everything down, like I did.
(5) Some carburator cleaner.
