Maybe it's not closing all the way? I have a 96 roadmaster wagon and have been getting check engine light lately - code error is EGR related P0400. Found out there is service bulletin for corrosion problems with the valve.

On the 1996 Buick Roadmaster, the PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) valve is located on the intake manifold. Specifically, it is typically found on the driver's side, near the rear of the engine. You may need to remove the engine cover to access it easily. The valve is connected to a hose that leads to the air intake system.
The EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve on a 1994 Buick Roadmaster Limited is typically located on the engine's intake manifold, near the throttle body. It is usually positioned towards the back of the engine, making it somewhat challenging to access. You may need to remove some components or use a mirror to clearly view it. Always consult a repair manual for specific details and diagrams.
93 Roadmaster.... that's a 5.7L engine, right? It should be attached to the intake with 2 bolts. Look for the thing that looks like a Chevy Smallblock EGR valve. Also, if you're replacing the valve because you have an EGR code make sure you don't have a clogged passage in the intake acting like a bad valve.
On a Buick Roadmaster with a 305ci engine, the small hose connected to the PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) valve typically runs to the intake manifold or the air cleaner assembly. This hose allows the engine to draw in fresh air while facilitating the removal of gases from the crankcase, helping to reduce emissions and improve engine efficiency. It's important to ensure this hose is properly secured and free of leaks for optimal performance.

On the engine side of the firewall and on the passenger side of vehicle. You should see two hoses. One goes all the way to the radiator and the other makes a U-turn - that one is your heater valve.
To fix the proportioning valve on a 1992 Buick Roadmaster, first, safely lift the vehicle and remove the rear wheels for access. Inspect the valve for leaks or damage and replace it if necessary. If the valve is functioning but improperly adjusted, bleed the brake system to ensure proper fluid flow and adjust the valve according to the manufacturer's specifications. Finally, test the brakes to ensure proper operation before putting the vehicle back on the road.
The head has to be removed on the 1993 Roadmaster to get to the gasket. You will need to remove the intake, exhaust manifold, and valve cover then unbolt the head to remove it. Check the head for warpage while it is removed.
Note that a 2.8L engine is a V6 and has two valve covers. Did you try looking at the other valve cover? == == == == IT'S ON THE VALVE COVER WHERE THEY ALWAYS ARE. I have this car and it is not there!
The heater control valve on a 1989 Buick Electra Park Avenue with a 3.8 engine is typically located near the firewall on the passenger side of the engine bay. It is connected to the heater hoses that run from the engine to the heater core. The valve itself may be mounted on the engine or on the firewall and is usually accessible from the top of the engine compartment.
