dont forget to take the hose off. A flat head screwdriver helps.

What are the symptoms of a faulty PCV valve? Idle erratic?
I think i tried changing mine a year or so ago but decided against it when it wouldnt come out of the housing. I was afraid of fracturing it...

I just replaced mine this last weekend. First remove the hose then push down slightly on the pcv valve and turn counter clockwise 90 degrees then pull it straight upward to remove it.

I'm just checking here, but is our PCV the one that comes off of the oil filler spout? I just changed the oil and was about a quart low, so I'm thinking I'm starting to use oil. I've heard this is a symptom of a bad PCV. Any validity in this? Thanks!
