Okay I read the thread on the pcv, seafoam and all. I didn't find anything for the 4.0 v6 ohv. By the way like everyone else I can't find my pcv valve. Also could someone share how I can seafoam my engine? All the steps please, so at least I know I done it right. Also, I noticed it causes alot of smoke. Is the emission that the seafoam causing dangerous? I just don't want my kids out in the yard and inhale something bad.
Thanks in advance!

i wanna seafoam my explorer i have been looking around i went to walmart a few days ago and i couldnt find it.
 






I had gotten some cans a while back at NAPA, which I'll probably never use. I don't know if WallyWorld carries it.

This is what it looks like if someone hasn't seen the can...

Done! I picked up a bottle from Autozone. I stopped by the Ford dealership and got a Motorcraft pcv valve. The technique is a little different than the one posted for v8 model.
I don't know exactly how clean it is in there now but I can tell you I really notice the difference in the sound of the engine when I rev it up now. It sounds like it has some performance.
It's like it's getting alot more air into the intake than it was before. Very good stuff.
 






I someone show me where the PCV is on a 01 4.0L? I couldn't find it last time.
