Now if I would pull the pcv valve out of the grommet would i be able to put my hand near the hole while it was running and feel a suction? or would it blow out? or nothing at all happen?

the reason I ask is cause i dont feel anything. no suction, no air coming out. So im just wondering if that would mean my screen is clogged

no, you have to pull the screen out to see if its clogged. i used a dental pick to remove the screen, it fits in there pretty tight.

if you end up needing a new one go to your local ford dealer. many other ones don't fit and will cause issues.

I bought one from the local parts store for $1.50 or something, fit right in.

If the engine is healthy and at idle, probably not...
