The one in pic 2, it's supposed to have a plastic clip/ring to keep it in place and that is gone and it keeps slipping off causing a vacuum leak and then it stalls
Yes, that’s the Pcv hose. It is supposed to have a clip like you said that keeps it secured to the intake. I had to buy one at one point and went the used route as the hose was over $100 new from Ford.
Need info on how to change the PCV valve on a 06 Ford EXPLORER, 4.0 L engine,with pics if possable, lots of instructions on the 05 and down but cant locate info on the 06. Thanks
For a temp fix until you find the part, I would wrap a piece of wire around the separated piece back to the rubber hose going to the intake in pic #1 as close to the intake as you can get to hold it together.
I couldn't find the full part number, but a partial one on the ford parts website. It's item # 6A664 in the engine schematic diagram at the below link for the PCV valve.

I don’t think those particular hoses will work. Here’s another link to a page on the forum where you can see the entire hose from someone that went through replacing the valve. You can see that one end of the hose has that special clip at the top where it connects to the intake. The other end connects directly to the pcv with a small metal hose clamp. Similar to heater hoses. I am thinking ford must have discontinued it as it’s no longer shown as an available part on fordparts. I only saw that schematic when referencing the pcv valve. Maybe they can get you something that would work though.
