PCV Valve Q?

Last night I took off the 2"+or- hose located from the Y fitting on the valve cover that connects to the rigid tube going to the air supply before the turbo. That little tube was gunked up with oil over the years. At the bend it collected on the sides and was blocking half the opening. I cleaned that out. When refitting, I added two hose clamps to give better seal.
I also took off the hose on the entry side of the PCV valve. PCV valve's plastic tube looked to oily as well. Did not clean.
I plan to replace the PCV valve today.
??? If the PCV valve is dirty and perhaps not operating well can it have an impact on the performance of the car? Idle or acceleration?
Thanks,
1998 900SE TALLADEGA 98.5T KM'S
