    Unmetered air through oil filler?

    Unmetered air that enters into the crankcase will get sucked in by the pcv into the intake causing the a/f to be on lean side. Now I just looked at a good reference manual that reinforces what I have been mentioning above before I said I was confused. Carbed cars will be a little different as...

    Unmetered air through oil filler?

    I see alot of confusion with regards to this particular subject in countless posts and now I am confused somewhat. Here I cut and paste a response that I recieved from one member: Removing the TB/VC line is not a good idea as this is the source of fresh air for the crankcase. It is the fresh...

    Unmetered air through oil filler?

    The pcv system is not depicted in the photo but the original poster says that "my pcv system is completely stock". SO..... The tube that used to run to the tb from the v/c (where it allowed "metered" air to flow into the crankcase" is no longer there). Rather it is routed before the MAF where...

    Vortech on a 93 with typical H,C,I. I see 12" vacuum at idle Aftermarket FRPP "stock style" valve covers. 1. TB plugged 2. nipple from v/c has hose routed near the maf 3. supra pcv with 2 inline oil separators prior to going to intake 4. pcv screen, baffle under the intake, and valve...

    Your soultion of two PCV valves concerns me with regards to the following: You may allow for a greater volume of gasses to vent from the crankcase but how is this going to affect the velocity at which they escape if the I.D. of the PCV valve is unchanged? The velocity at which they leave is...

    I've read that write up. I am running a Vortech. I haven't done a compression check but motor has approx 3000 miles on it.

    Unmetered air through oil filler?

    What you guys seem to be missing is that in the stock, OEM configuration, the tube that normally runs to the TB from the valve cover is where the PCV pulls "metered" air from to flow into the crankcase and out the PCV valve to the upper intake.

    Unmetered air through oil filler?

    No. Since he has the stock pcv valve set up and installation as in his picture, he is pulling in unmetered air into the combustion chamber. In my opinion the amount being introduced into the combustion chamber this way is so small that it shouldn't create any concern. Crankcase air being...

    Idle Problems

    What happens if you are dead stop and punch the throttle. Will it hang the same as when you are slowing to a stop?

    Was filling quickly like under 100 miles of driving. This was with the element still installed. It is the Home Depot separator. I have stock valve covers and was wondering if I should run a tube from the nipple on the oil fill neck of the valve cover to the intake. I would then have to use a...

    Idle Problems

    it stays around 1200-1400 after you step on the gas then drops to 950? Is this while you are at a dead stop or coming to a stop?

    Are any of you guys using 2 separators inline between the pcv and intake? I know some guys, like myself, have their separator fill up a little too quickly thus the reason for adding another. And for you blower guys, do you use a check valve between the the separator and upper intake so not to...

    Who's using and air/oil separator and / or Supra PCV valve

    For guys running blowers, anyone using a check valve between the oil seperator and upper intake so not to boost the seperator and blow oil all around in it?

    Unmetered air through oil filler?

    First I would say that I've seen numerous posts concerned with letting unmetered air into the engine when using an open breather and PCV set up. I believe people make too big of a deal with regards to it. Second, the setup pictured, which is the same for Vortech install, essentially allows...

    Who's using and air/oil separator and / or Supra PCV valve

    The Supra PCV has a smaller opening both ends as opposed to say the EV-127 pcv valve (Turbo Coupe). Wonder would using one of these slow the velocity of airflow through the pcv enough.

    With stock style valve covers on a 93 where could I mount a second pcv? Any ideas?

    PMS on the way

    My O2's are not connected. Even when they are there is no change in bringing the rpms back down to idle quicker. When I added timing the idle just went up more.

    That much fuel was put in to stop catalytic convertors from glowing orange. My base timing is set at 10*. At warm idle the PMS dispays 15* now. So when I add the +6 will te PMS then display 21*?
