Re: Attn: Wicked (PCV crap)
I think Brad is trying to over complicate the PCV system. The reason it is there is to releive any pressure built up in the crankcase (caused by things like piston ring blow-by and bad valve seals).

Re: Attn: Wicked (PCV crap)
Brad is correct in saying that fresh "metered" air is drawn into the passenger side head, circulated through the block, then drawn out through the drivers side head. But in my understanding of the system and its pressure area's, this only happens at closed/low throttle situations (high vaccumn). Then at higher loads or WOT situations the flow path of the passengers side is reversed due to the postive pressure inside the block now needs to be evacuated. With the throttle open both ports now see a vacummn signal, a weak signal, but enough to move the blowby gasses and building pressure inside the block.

Normal PCV flow is ONLY during VACUUM condition, i.e. part throttle. At WOT, its just as you said and the blowby gases escape out the pass side and into the air stream. :nono: I can't believe that is so hard to understand. |

It was my own fault because i was comparing the PCV setup on my 93 and 94 which is nothing like that. All there is to the system on those is a PCV that vents to the inlet tract. That's it, no other "fresh air" lines. |
