Default workin on my first ranger

well i have a 94 ford ranger 2.3l 5 speed. It has 191xxx on it and i don't know when anything was done to it so i started doing the maintiance on it. Today i did i wanted to do an oil change, tune up, pcv valve, fuel filter, clean the throttle boddy. Well i did the fuel filter with out a problem. Then i went to do the oil change. I changed the oil filter and then went to drain the oil and who ever changed it last messed up the drain plug. so i started on the tune up. I got the exhaust side done in 10 mins. then i looked at the intake side.......what the hell. Why did ford design it like that? well i got 2 out of the 4 done on that side. so i went looking for a pair of vise grips and didn't have any, and i went looking for a 3/8 swivel extension and of course i didn't have one. so i am going to go get those tomorrow. Also where the hell is the pcv valve on this engine?

look for the #2 cyl plug wire on the drivers side and look straight down. or from the drivers fender look between the #1 and #2 intake runner and you will see a big vacuum hose which leads right to the pcv valve...hope this helps. Also look here they have pictures to help you locate it.
