Clogged crankcase ventilation systems often are overlooked causes of engine oil leaks. Savvy service personnel keep these systems at the top of their mental checklists for solving oil leaks. I'll ...
A car smelling like burning oil is usually caused by oil leaking onto hot engine parts (like the exhaust manifold) or ...
Every engine has some sort of crankcase breathing system. The internal combustion process creates pressure, some of which makes its way past the piston rings-along with fuel vapors-and into the rest ...
All engines need some sort of crankcase pressure relief. Whether it's in the form of a simple breather, or a more effective PCV system, you need a way to vent blowby gases inherently generated by a ...
Every engine, regardless of its condition, has a certain amount of blow-by or air/fuel mixture that slips past the pistons and rings and finds its way into the crankcase. In addition, during normal ...
The PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) system is designed to regulate and remove fumes from the engine crankcase, and to alleviate crankcase pressure which could cause oil leaks or seal damage. The ...
