Default PCV valve which one?
I want to replace my PCV valve. I have a 04 4.6L. When I go to the NAPA site, they list two different ones. One is for a WINDSOR engine, the other "Push in twist-lock w/non-heated valve. One looks shorter and thicker then the other. How do I check which one is needed? Both twist in and lock. Thanks

What is the 8th digit of your VIN?

"W" means you have the ROMEO engine, not the Windsor.

Would you not think a "W" would be used for Windsor and a "R" for Romeo ...weird

Totally deceptive in almost every form lol. The VIN code for the Windsor engine is actually "6".
