PCV
 

thinking about my pcv setup
wondering if this would do the job.
the blue are valves

Re: PCV
 

I don't see the point of your valves, they are essentially allowing flow in both directions negating themselves.

Just use a straight line instead of using 2 Ts and 2 check valves. Setup looks fine.

Re: PCV
 

Yeah the valves aren't going to do a whole lot. Just use a straight line for a setup.

Re: PCV
 

ya i thought of that after the fact.
should i just use fuel line or what? i remember someone using clear tube, but i don't want that sticking out under tha hood. i'm sure it will turn yellow after a while too

Re: PCV
 

Who cares if it turns yellow, use whatever you want. It doesn't matter.

Re: PCV
 

i care and ok.

Re: PCV
 

You are a tard.

Drill out the PCV and just point a hose to the ground from it.

Re: PCV
 

yup

Re: PCV
 

Seriously, just vent it to the ground.

Re: PCV
 

That's all I'm doing this time, the hell with crazy pcv setups. I went one step further and pulled the pcv valve out completely and dropped a line to the ground from the top of the stock catch can.

Re: PCV
 

Same here.

Re: PCV
 

I vent to the ground. Bought a catchcan off ebay and said wtf do I need this for I don't wanna keep whatever gets caught

So I sold it and let the tube go to the ground

Re: PCV
 

the tube from the black box directly to the ground, no stock valve. or anything.

Re: PCV
 

Ha, I never thought about it that way, but it's true kind of like saving your poop.

Re: PCV
 

well i must have missed the memo, last i read there were slash cuts & moroso catch cans with filters and baffles. now its just "run a tube to the ------ ground, man" thats cool and a hell of a lot easier. and cheaper.
will this cause a problem at the track??

Re: PCV
 

Who cares what other people say just do what you want.

Oh and make sure your tube doesn't get yellow, that means your engine is about to blow.

Re: PCV
 

i'm sure it does funny man

Re: PCV
 

This was the last pcv setup I ran... Attachment 28771
I modeled it after my g/f's '04 wrx setup. It worked ok (manifold line could be replaced by a slash-cut) but venting to the ground is just so much easier :y

Re: PCV
 

I lost my breath when I read that, then I realized who said it and to whom...

Re: PCV
 

That setup lets oil vapor back into the combustion chamber.... detonation is much more likely when that happens.

Re: PCV
 

im kind of new to this vacuum thing can someone draw a ghetto pic of the tube to the ground idea are talking a tube just of your valve cover and that is it or is there more to it

Re: PCV
 

You're halfway there,

There's a breather box on the back of the block under your oil filter with a hose that connects up to the intake manifold. Make this hose go to the ground too and you are set.

Re: PCV
 

It did go to a catch-can after the stock pcv valve and before the T-off, was just a quick slap-together drawing. Just is too much hassle to deal with, and clutters the engine bay too much.

Re: PCV
 

thanks jon that helps clear things up

Re: PCV
 

Drill out the PCV or remove it when you do that though.
