Crankcase Ventilation System Description
Crankcase Ventilation System DescriptionA closed crankcase ventilation system is used in order to provide a more complete scavenging of crankcase vapors. Fresh air from the throttle body is supplied to the crankcase, mixed with blow-by gases, and then passed through a crankcase ventilation pipe/passage into the intake manifold.

A plugged PCV Pipe/passage way may cause:
^ Rough idle
^ Stalling or slow idle speed
^ Oil leaks
^ Sludge in engine
