Thread: PCV/Oil filler tube

Tweet

Thanks Denny, so if I understand you the pcv is only using enough vacuum to stabilize the pan to the valley?

I get it, the pcv valve works completely back wards from the way I was thinking. Thanks for your help.

Ken, No problem.My motor only has 600 easy driven miles right now.
After my post yesterday I called the TEC line at Edelbrock.
They said about the same as most of you folks ref.to "Blow By".
They also said that with a new motor such as mine I will be
OK with the breather on the fill tube. Thanks again folks.
Cool Guy

I hope you mean a pcv in the fill tube ,along with the vented cap?
If not ,I sure hope its not pretty under the hood......
Is it manditory....no,will the engine firewall and the rest of the engine be covered in gunk.....yes,will the car have a oil wreek to it ,...yes,that burning oil smell will infiltrate the entire car and you will have a stinker on yer hands.


Do the new oils cake under the valve covers ,without a pcv ,like the old oils did ?

Shawnlee28, Thanks for the reply. Now I don,t know what to do!!!!
Could anyone post some drawings or Pictures. Seems like after looking
at this problem over on the "HAMB" everyone is confused about what
can be done and what cannot be done. As they say "if it was easy
everyone would be doing it" !!!!! LOL. Coolguy

Coolguy Denny helped me with more or less the same problem. I had a pcv valve on one side and a breather on the other but I was getting oil from to much pressure and Denny said to run a breather with a hose to the carb so that the carb sucked all my blowby created by a modified cam and the best thing was at ninety or higher where I was getting oil over my engine there is none now.

This is how mine looks. This is temporary, I will now do it in hard line to blend in with the fuel lines now that I know that it works and why it works, thank you very much.

Hey Denny, did I make you piddle!!!
