The positive crankcase ventilation valve on a 2002 Mercury Cougar is located on top of the engine; in the valve cover. It removes harmful fumes from the engine.
To find the positive crankcase ventilation valve, look on the right bank of the engine. The valve is located beneath the intake manifold.
The engine number on the Mitsubishi Lancer is located on the crankcase. After opening the hood, the engine number can be accessed on the driver's side of the motor just below the manifold.
The PCV or positive crankcase ventlation valve does as it is named. It will remove harmful gases from the engine. Also, you can find breather caps on the valve covers, this also helps to remove and fumes from the crankcase or engine base.
I believe you're referring to the the PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) hose. After it passes thru the PCV valve itself it goes down below the engine and hooks into the crankcase itself (where the sump for the engine lubricating oil is located).
Oil is stored in the crankcase located on the bottom of the engine block.
The crankcase vent on a 1996 Suzuki Intruder VS 800 is located along the side of the engine. It allows vapors to escape from inside the engine.
Underneath the engine, on the crankcase.
The PCV valve is an abbreviation for Positive Crankcase Ventilation, which is the recycling of gases of a vehicle. In a 2002 Ford Escort the PCV valve is located in the front of the engine near the drivers side.
The PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) valve allows the engine to burn off the gases that build up in the crankcase and at the same time protect the flammable gases from igniting from a backfire.
A PCV valve is for positive crankcase ventilation. It is to keep crankcase pressure from building up in the engine. If it does it can cause seal leakage, air filter contamination and engine blowby.
I think you are referring to a PCV pipe, generally you will find a connection between the engine crankcase and your air intake, which is why it is called a positive crankcase ventilation pipe or valve
