2200 Crank Case Breather/PCV Valve
Monday, October 15, 2007 11:51 AM
Im wondering where the hell this is because im getting crankcase blow by and i want to see if the PCV valve is still working properly. I would imagine that if its working properly it should be releiving the pressure in the crankcase caused by boost - thus minimizing or stopping the blow by im getting? right? now i was also told that a vaporizer would help. This is new to me im wondering if someone could shed some light on this problem/solutions...

And i dont mean the lil vent on top of the valve cover...


help?

our engine does not have a actual PCV valve, it's just that crank case vent on top of the valve cover.

I thought someone had told me that we had the PCV somewhere, other than the lil valve cover vent... Ill take a look at my haynes manual just to be sure. Im having minor blow by, its a pretty common problem from what ive heard. It can be fixed by relieving the pressure in the crank case, ( ive been told to use a catch can or vaporizer). Im going to be building my spare block anyways so thats reassurance. i was told that this isnt going to blow my motor or anything, as long as it doesnt blow all the oil out, so just to keep an eye on my oil levels and should be completly fine.
