Default PVC system
Has anybody bought this new style pvc valve just for preventative maintenance since it is a new gm design? It's cheap and obviously easy as heck to replace. So is it worth it?

i replaced mine a couple of months ago just because many here suggested it. It was easy to do and like you said it was cheap. I figured a new design could only help over the old design. Also, i went to the dealership and got the item.

I installed one when I did my catch can. I'm using less oil, but I'm not how much of that is due to the valve and how much to the can.

Right on guys. I'm pretty sure I'm going to go ahead and buy it. I mean, it can't hurt.
