It has been a very long time since I have had to do my own car repair. However my husband passed away 6 weeks ago very unexpectedly and my car was in need of repair at the time.. so I bought my intake manifold gasket set and I found your video and I fixed my car and I just want to say thank you so much for the videos that you post. There's no way I could have ever afforded to pay someone to fix my car especially not right now. Your video was a lifesaver

[@PistonShack]

My condolences with your greatest lost Renee. So sad to hear that. It's not that difficult to do PCV valve and intake gasket on 2.0L Ford Duratech, that it might look on a video. Let me know if you have any questions. God Blesses You.

[@realayer]

I hope you didnt have as much trouble completing this as I have, given what you have gone through- you should be on a beach somewhere or doing something more enjoyable. condolences.

[@luisponce1472]

Renee did you have to Change your Pcv valve too or just a Manifold leak?

[@bastogne315]

Nice Renee..

@@PistonShack sir if PCV is not working, what what will happen to my Ford focus?

[@erikstrawn3885]

Thanks! My daughter's '06 Focus needed the PCV hose. I'm fairly experienced, but it would have taken me another hour or so without your video.

[@PistonShack]

Glad it helped Erik! I was doing it for the first time as well)

[@Dhi-fe5eu]

The guy who designed this motor I’m sure has family members who are mechanics.

[@PistonShack]

Good point, I haven't thought about it. 2.0L Duratec engine is not too bad, most of the components hidden under the intake manifold. Cheers!

[@toddmiller5322]

The worst thing about the location of the PCV on this engine is that it can need to be replaced between every 20,000 - 50,000 miles, despite Ford's recommended 100,000 mile interval. I'm about to do mine because all the signs are there. Bank 1 lean code, rough idle both hot and cold, leaking valve cover gasket, and the car only has 65,000 miles on it. I'm seriously considering gutting the old PCV valve so I can place the new one in a remote location out from under the manifold.

[@justlg3359]

Did u manage to replace it without removing the manifold?

[@GrizzlyGaz]

You can take the throttle body off and hose and reach through to the PCV valve if you're not renewing the manifold gasket.

Great idea placing the bolts in the screw holes on air intake & throttle body ! My father was a mechanic, I grow up in a garage my father always told me The service book are only 50/50 on information.

[@danicyrus6464]

Thinking I'm going to do this job on my car sigh not looking forward to it

[@PistonShack]

Sounds good Gage! Let me know if you have any questions.

[@danicyrus6464]

@@PistonShack can I get the manifold out if I just take the fans out and leave the radiator in

[@skippyi6969]

Why not remove the fuel rail ? It appears that you may have way more access with it out of your way. Its just 2 bolts, the 4 injector wiring harness's, fuel input line and the rail and injectors pops right off. Would that not be worth the time to do it for this job ?

[@PistonShack]

Good point Bevis! There's always some better ways to do it. Thanks for sharing your advice. Cheers!

[@frankmontez6853]

Ive had oil leaks from valve cover gasket which needed replacement . Someone suggested I might need to replace PCV valve valve. How do we know it needs to be replaced ?

Mk1 focus with 2.0 L duratec…? 🤔

[@sbmasson]

always clear and concise videos.....thank you

[@PistonShack]

Thanks Bruce! I am glad you like it! Happy New Year 2021!!

[@pfsantos007]

Would have maybe been easier to disconnect the hose for the PCV valve on the intake manifold side and leave it attached to the PCV valve until after intake manifold removal.

[@PistonShack]

Hi Paul! Interesting point. Let me know if it work out.

[@jn1mrgn]

Granted I haven't done this job which is why I'm watching the video, but putting the intake gaskets on after putting the manifold in there seems insane. Don't they easily fit into the plastic grooves on the intake manifold? I replaced gaskets on the valve cover and it looked like the same thing. If you are worried about scratching them with the fuel rail, the fuel rail is really easy to remove. Am I missing something?

[@PistonShack]

Hey brotha! This way worked well. I tried the way you explain, I just didn't want to remove fuel rail off. Just tried to reduce amount of parts taking off. Thanks the advice. Have you done your repair already?

[@jn1mrgn]

@@PistonShack No, it's not the weather here to be doing this right now, unfortunately. I don't have a garage. Didn't mean to be offensive.

[@paulynotshore7006]

Very good! Nice vidéo my focus is on 3 ks and light keeps coming on for vaccum leak. I guess i'm going to check that. Thanks.

[@PistonShack]

Glad it helped Paulty!

[@55chevytruck]

thanks i am doing this job and this has been helpful. Having a hard time with the ring that holds down the pcv valve. Which way does the plastic ring turn to take it off?

[@PistonShack]

I think you have to turn that plastic locker ring counter clockwise 1/4-1/2 of the turn ti take it apart.

[@pjwitherspork9810]

Hey man I just got done doing this today I’m waiting on the hose and valve. I have oil residue inside the intake where the pcv hose attaches, what does that mean ? Does it just mean the pcv valve failed??

[@PistonShack]

Hi Parker. Most likely PCV valve partially stuck (clogged) closed or tube got clogged up. Little bit an oil is fine. Did you drain any from intake manifold?

[@bioweapons89]

So the hose on the bottom backside is the PCV hose? How hard will it be to replace? I have a 2013 ford focus se

[@Tajo92]

Is this the same job that needs to be done on a mazda6 2.0 petrol from 2010? Thanks

[@ratchetnclank4514]

Hello! Could you possibly tell me the name of the hose at the 4:00 mark? I’ve been searching for the name for a while. Your video is the only one I’ve found that shows it. You don’t discuss it cause it’s not part of your problem. But your hand is over it at the 4:00 minute mark in video! Thanks in advance!!!

[@jeephead1832]

TIP use ratchet straps and pull motor away from radiator just a small amount and you will not damage gaskets while placing intake on

[@frankmontez6853]

I semi regularly clean everything under the hood. Just use purple power cleaner spray. Spray everything let it sit few minutes then wash off.

If your engine isn't worn out it will help to reduce crank case pressure for sure.

I have the exact same problem. My car is also equipped with lpg from the factory. Do you know how can I move the plg injectors rail away to make space?

[@PistonShack]

Hi Alin! Oh, I see. I am not sure but I think should not be much difference than removing gasoline fuel rail. Let me know what did work for you. Cheers!

[@bluesummersky6936]

@@PistonShack it was actually easier than i thought regarding the fuel rail. However i got stuck on the last 2 bolts from the center🤬🤬😭, i can't reach them i managed to get 6 bolts out and all the wires away, but those bloody bolds i couldnt and I had to abandon and put everything back together. I will try tomorrow maybe, after i buy another extension for my rachet. I had 2 extensions but they aren't enough apparently. Those bolts are way deep inside. I Have the 2009 2.0 focus and it's slighly different from the pre facelift version

[@PistonShack]

I know brotha they are hard to get. Just get bunch of different length extensions, deep and shallow sockets with a swivel to rich them.

great job and great video, regards from ARG

This PCV acts like a check valve or it allows air to pass in both directions? 👍👍👍

[@FalconMFilms]

I was a bit confused on how to do this because the Haynes manual didn't explain it well. But you explained it perfectly! I will be doing this soon, thank you!

[@PistonShack]

Hi FalconMFilms! Great to hear that! I couldn't find any decent information with all details online. I tried my very best to make it clear and straight to the point. Let me know if you have any questions. Whatt Ford Focus do you have? Cheers!

[@FalconMFilms]

Sorry for the late reply, I’ve been busy fixing some more pressing issues (wheel bearing, wheel cylinder, cv axle, motor mount). Had to put the intake manifold work on hold for now. Thanks, I’ll let ya know if I got any questions. I have a 2006 focus zx5, I mainly use it for daily driving and autocross. Keep it up man!

You bet brotha. Sounds like serious repair is going on! In Canada Ford Focus is not very popular loved vehicle at all. Take care!

Is $525 a fair price for rear end crankshaft seal, replace pcv valve and a couple cracks in aluminum oil pan where AC compressor is mounted on ? 2016 Focus SE 2.0L duratech engine.

[@PistonShack]

Hey Frank! Sounds like you had good deal for the work shop did. Check front side of the engine where is serpentine belt, AC compressor should be there. Thanks for you feedback.

[@frankmontez6853]

@@PistonShack no , about to get it done. That's price he quoted me. He also said I should clean engine ( which I've done) to truly check it to see any oil leaks. Also, if timing cover is leaking oil that must mean the engine crankshaft front seal is bad too right ? I don't think it is but asking just in case.

[@PistonShack]

I would clean inside the engine cover, let engine warm up and idle while looking for any leaks with bright flash light. Most likely oil get inside the engine cover. Normally, seals shouldn't leak on 5 years old vehicle.
