no nothing is clogged i dont know because i tried 3 different pcv valves and dont know which one to use because it runs differently with all of them, even though they are all the same ones. I am starting to get irritated with this.

did you try the IAC, maybe it is not working properly. See if there is a code in the cpu for it. the light does not have to be on to have a code.

yes if you remove it it can be cleaned, if it fixes the problem, then guarrented it will have to be replaced, most of the time the cleaning is only a temp fix.
