PCV System: Description

The crankcase ventilation system is designed to prevent contaminating hydrocarbons from escaping to the atmosphere. This is accomplished by routing the vapors from the crankcase through a vacuum-controlled ventilating valve (PCV Valve) into the intake manifold. There, they mix with the air/fuel mixture and are burned in the combustion process.
