PCV valve location on FEH?
Just as the title says. I have a 2006 FEH AWD and I'm looking for the PCV valve. For the life of me I can not find the dang thing. Someone please point me in the correct direction so I can put that hybrid cover back on and be done for the day....
Thanks in advance!

You're not going to like this but the workshop manual says for removal and installation of the PVC valve you must remove the intake manifold. Disengage the positive ventilation (PVC) valve cap from the 2 tabs and remove the PVC valve. To install, reverse the removal procedure. Are you sure you need to replace the PVC valve now?

I used to work at autozone part time on the weekends, so I got a great deal on one ($12).
Thanks for the information BTW. Looks like I have my saturday morning cut out for me

Gary, my AWD FEH is just shy of 115k miles. Still runs like a champ and gets 30+mpg around town. The owners manual says replace at 100k, so I figure its due. I always do my oil changes every 3-5k with ford synthetic blend 5w20. I put in new plugs, serpentine belt, all filters, etc. Last maintenence item is the PCV and I will not rest until it's installed.... lol

Thank you Yves. I was just under the hood a few minutes ago. What a silly place to put that pvc valve. Honestly, you cant see it. Taking the intake manifold might be a job for the professionals. Looks pretty intimidating.
