I've done a search and nothing comes up on the forums on pcv valves. My question is does my 2004 5.4L have one? The parts stores don't list one, also can i just clean the pcv valve? And can anybody take a pic and show me where it is located?

thanks guys

I was gonna replace it on my '07 as part of standard maintenance stuff but the parts guy told me the same thing, so I say it doesn't have one.

its part of the cover, you dont replace it or clean it.

+1! Not a routine maintenance item on our engines.

I've never seen one go bad but if you want to know it is on the front of the bank 2 (drv. side) valve cover, under the power steering bracket

Ok, thanks guys, one less thing to worry about

this is a picture of the underside of two 5.4 valve covers - one old and one new. The PCV hose goes to that built in assembly you can see on the roof of the valve cover. As you can see - and as others said - not replaceable without replacing the whole valve cover.

Any one know why we need the Pcv heater? I have been running without it plugged with out any ill effects

Thanks for the pics!
So I take it its not like other pcv valves which usually need cleaned or replaced eventually

Hi,

I'd like to know if anyone has replace their driver side valve cover with built-in PCV valve and if anyone recommends doing it, or when it should be done.

Thanks,

Jason
