Help locating PCV

I have a 1995 Honda civic CX hatch back and im having these symptoms in my car


may cause a rough idle, hard starting and/or lean misfire (which increases emissions and wastes fuel).

Feels like my car when i switch gears it struggles to get its motion when i hit the gas

So where is the PCV valve located in my car ?

usually they are located at the top of the engine in the valve cover with a hose connected.

When you pull the valve hose out it the plastic part at the end. Here is a tutorial that gives you an idea: http://www.clubcivic.com/board/showthread.php?t=68638
