Comaq888: I am really confused. I thought you were trying to change the PCv valve. Their shouldn't be any coolant being lost. If you lost coolant, you should just replace it with a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water. I don't know what year your Nissan is, but almost everything I have is from around 90-94 and they use a little bleed valve at the top of the engine, where the upper radiator hose attaches. If it has that, just find a spot that has a little bit of slope, put the car up slope, running, let the bleed srew out until it starts letting air/cooleant out, then leave it until you get all coolant, then close the bleed valve. Then you should just need to put a mix in the overflow for the radiator and you should be good to go.
