EGR Solenoid Valves Cover

[Central Cal]

Hello Everyone,

This Coronavirus has been the perfect opportunity to get some stuff done with the truck, but my wife has other ideas.... “The Honey-Do List.”  Lol

Anyway, it’s located on the back, right side of the valve cover. It’s right atop the EGR Solenoid Valves.  I saw one at a junk yard a few weeks back. Didn’t think nothing of it, but later thought it would be a nice addition to look of the engine bay.

I’ve asked a lot of different folks and have searched everywhere. Only found a picture of it.

Liked to know if anyone has one, could find one, has a part number for one?

I’ll post a picture if I can figure out how... lol

Posting pics, as well as several other things, is explained on the page at Bullnose Forum/Forum FAQ's.  But I'll post it for you here:

Thank you, Sir....

What year is that? I've never seen one.

Should be 1984-1986, for 49 state models.

Mine doesn't have one... I don't even remember anywhere for it to mount. Never even thought there would be a cover on such.

Then again, I also have a different valve cover than in the picture; the crankcase breather and oil cap are the same piece, not separate.

I think 1986F150Six is right. 84-86 Models.

Nobody knows nothing, huh?  Interesting...

I had the same valve cover as you ratdude747, but I replaced it with a 86 F150 valve cove. I think it looks nicer.

It gets the job done, and since I was able to get a new breather/cap, I'm running with it.

(yes, my detail painting was a fail... I'll probably paint it over. It got nicked in storage and needs touched up anyway).

Clean and very presentable!

Hi....I'm attempting to supplant EGR Vacuum Solenoid on 2002 Explorer XLT 4.0. I know where it is found yet can't sort out some way to get an instrument on the two bolts to eliminate. Ideally I don't have to eliminate the valve cover just to get to it. Would anyone be able to kindly exhort as to tool(s) and method?
