93 PA PCV Valve

[DB1973]

I am not a newbie to car repair, but I can't locate the PCV valve on my 3.8 V6? It's normally aspirated....not supercharged. Any help would be really appreciated!

The PCV valve is located on top of the motor, passenger side at the end of the manifold near the belts. Look for a cap that will twist off and then underneath, you will see a spring. (There will be an O-Ring on the PCV cap, do not loose it) After the cap is off, you can take out the PCV, using a pair of needle nose pliers. Make sure you put the o-ring(s) back in the right place on the new one.

I don't know about anyone else, but this site has saved me a ton of money due to less service shop visits!
The earlier L27 engines had "PCV" on the engine cover, which made finding the valve a piece of cake. I don't know why the valve was moved in the later models. Like you, I had to search a bit before I found the PCV valve in our '93 lesabre..it was also a pain getting that cap and "o" ring to twist back on securely. Good luck with it!
