do any of you think there's a reason NOT to use the autozone brand PCV valve? i live 5 minutes from autozone and an hour from my nearest nissan dealer. is there any difference between the 2 parts? the reason i'm changing it is i have 112,000 miles on my car, and i doubt it was ever changed before i bought the car @ 60,000. i recently had to replace my mafs. i also cleaned my TB and IACV, so i'm just being paranoid with preventive maintenance these days
thanks for any advice.

I've replaced the PCV at 60k miles with the one from Autozone. Forgot the brand but it has blue color on the top. No problems associated with it so far, that I could tell anyway.

It will perform like new. carb cleaner is about $1 a can.

actually i got it wrong ... i meant "advanced auto parts." when i got there today and bought the pcv valve i found out it was a "purolator". i just installed it and will watch for any problems. yeah, i imagine that cleaning it with $1 carb cleaner would probably suffice, but i spent the $3 and replaced it. i figure i've wasted $2 on dumber things in my lifetime. my dad thinks i'm an idiot for buying 93 octane, so maybe i'm a lost cause
