Where is your PCV valve in 97 Pontiac firebird v6 3800 series?

On a 1997 Pontiac Firebird with the 3800 Series V6 engine, the PCV valve is usually located on the upper intake manifold. It's often near the back of the intake, but its exact position can vary slightly depending on the specific configuration of your engine. You'll likely see a small, usually plastic, valve with a hose connected to it. This hose often runs to the valve cover(s).

To be certain, I recommend:

* Consulting your owner's manual: This will have a diagram showing the location of the PCV valve.

* Using a repair manual (like a Haynes or Chilton): These manuals usually have detailed diagrams and instructions.

* Searching online for a diagram specific to your year and engine: A Google image search for "1997 Pontiac Firebird 3800 V6 PCV valve location" might yield helpful images.

Remember to be careful when working around the engine compartment. The engine and components can be hot, even after the car has been off for a while.
