Tip & How-To about Ford Crown Victoria

All Ford 5.0l engines

A lot of people don't know this. On some Ford 5.0l engine there is a little filter below the positive ventilation crankcase (PVC) valve. Too many people have replaced only the PVC valve thinking the reason for oil blowing out of the valve covers, and any other gaskets or seals, will correct the problem. In reason, the PVC is one of the main areas to check and is the easiest and cheapest way to go. In all, the PVC filter is to blame. Remember preventive maintenance goes a long way have your oil changed regularly.Lee Davidian
