Fram FV246 Positive Crankcase Ventilation PCV Valve

The Fram FV246 is a direct-fit Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve engineered as a quality replacement for select Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Mazda applications. The PCV valve plays a critical role in your engine's emissions and ventilation system by reducing crankcase air pressure and redirecting blow-by gases back into the air intake system for combustion rather than releasing them into the atmosphere.

Over time, crankcase gases — contaminated with oil vapor, gasoline, and combustion byproducts — degrade the internal components of the valve, causing it to stick or plug. A failed PCV valve can result in rough idling, poor engine performance, oil leaks, and reduced fuel economy. Regular replacement with a quality part like the Fram FV246 helps maintain proper engine operation and supports emissions compliance.

Key Features:

• Direct-fit replacement PCV valve for select Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Mazda vehicles
• 90-degree nipple orientation for accurate OE-style routing
• Plastic barb-style mounting for secure, rattle-free installation
• Inlet connection type: tube connector (male)
• Inlet outer diameter: 0.375 inches
• Made in the USA

PCV valves are precisely calibrated for specific engine applications. Using the correct valve ensures proper airflow through the crankcase ventilation system and prevents drivability issues associated with over- or under-ventilation. The Fram FV246 is sized and tuned to match the OE specification for its covered applications.
