Standard Ignition PCV Valve P/N:V249
Keep crankcase ventilation working as designed with the Standard Ignition V396, a direct-fit Ford Ranger PCV valve for the 2001-2003 Ranger with the L4-2.3L engine that also fits the 2001-2003 Mazda B2300 L4-2.3L. The listed applications use one valve.
A PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) valve is a one-way metering valve. It draws blow-by gases and vapors out of the crankcase and routes them into the intake so they are burned in the engine, which helps manage crankcase pressure. Standard says its emission products are designed to address the failure issues found in the original equipment.
Signs this part may need replacing include a rough idle, a whistling or hissing sound, rising oil consumption, or oil seeping past engine seals. Because other faults can cause these symptoms, diagnose the cause before you replace the valve.
