pcv valve broke, other options

[ryan_v]

My pcv valve broke and im a tight arse and dont want to buy a new one. I blocked the inlet manifold and was gonna weld a pipe onto were the pcv valve used to be and run it into a catch can with a one way valve in the pipe.

What other options is there?

Its variable Ryan, not just open and closed so best to put a new one in.

its only emission related. its only there so oily fumes get drawn back through the engine and burnt so they dont vent to atmosphere. same with the setup with the charcoal canister for the fuel tank.

entirely up to you what you want to do with it. wont really affect anything either way tbh

found one lying about the shed. so im gonna take johns advice and stick it back in.

Why is it variable?
