Well that would be PCVV

You are correct both of you,,,, hey thanks for pointing that out.

If use the .....positive crankcase ventilation.... verbage it sounds more like the system. I fell that would be the most correct.

The PCV System....... The system of rubber hose, clean breather air supply, control valve, and suction location such as carb/manifold. It sucks up the Blow By Combustion Gas & along with clean filtered air. It suckes this mixture of gases into the carb and burns them up in the combustion process for a cleaner enviroment.

I have used PCV for both... usually refer to the valve as the PCV part since that is a regular maintenace item. So what should we call that little valve, top valve cover, that is a regular maintenance item. The little thing we shake to see if plugged up or fouled?

Maybe a mistake on my part but has worked for me and do not rememeber seeing PCVV.



PCV...Maybe it should be both maybe not. Maybe there should be PCV and PCVV.
