Question
where is the pvc valve located on a 1987 cougar.My husband said it is a fuel injected, 3.0, V8
Betty,
Well, we have a problem. An '87 Cougar only had a 3.8, nothing else but I think it is a mute point. The PCV valve should be located in one of the valve covers. It will have a black 1/2" od hose connected to it. The hose will run to the base of the fuel injection unit.
Please know that I'm a parts specialist, NOT a Tech. I looked in an old book I have for auto repair and it showed a "generic" illustration but the only other place I have ever seen a PCV valve was in the valley pan on an OLD Pontiac. I hope this helps...

Heretofore, I will NOT answer any mechanical question. I am not qualified and can only offer speculations. You are better served by others that are true Techs. With that being said, please only ask about parts and locating obsolete Auto Parts. Thank you. I have the ability to locate quite a few mechanical parts for American made vehicles fron the 1900`s to present. Some are OEM and some are aftermarket. This would include engine, brake and chassis parts. Body parts and trim are VERY difficult to find but you may inquire. If you need assistance in repair, I have illustrated books for major American manufacturers that show some illustrations BEFORE 1974. If needed, I can supply repair manuals for your specific vehicle. PLEASE REMEBER I'M A PARTS SPECIALIST, NOT A TECH!! Thank you.. Skip
