On your Pressure Reducing Valve(PRV), you would undo the nut and turn the bolt clockwise(or turning it into the PRV)to increase the volume and pressure.

The shaft threw the center has two notches and can be turned with a large flat screw driver, however useually if they are not bran new they wont turn and tere is rarely a need to.

If there is air in your coolant system and you were told to let the air out of the pressure valve where is this valve?

you need to find the bleeding screw that is located on or by the thermostat housing.you'l know that is a bleeding screw/valve because the bolt is not holding anything down. you'll turn it with the car off. you will see a pin size hole on it. turn on your car and when coolant start to flow out of it you have succesfully taken out the air from the cooling system. answer the coolant system bleeder is generally on water pump the bleeder looks same as a brake bleeder and works in exactly same way

The bleeder valve is a 8mm bolt for the rears located on top of the drum or on the caliper itself if you have disk rear brakes. For the front, a 10mm bolt is located on the caliper itself. PB blaster should be used to be sure the bleeder valve is not broken


Is the pressure regulator valve bad if there is no pressure change when you turn the bolt counter clockwise?

It is often very difficult to tell if nothing happens at first. I always fit a gauge at the nearest possible location after the PRV, and look at this every 2 turns. If I cannot raise the pressure, either the valve is old (very possible) or the incoming supply is lower pressure. The only real way to check this is shutting off at street and removing the PRV, fitting a gauge and check incoming pressure. -I have done this on occasion and found city pressure fluctuates a lot. Easiest way is to fit a new PRV and adust it for high flow.
