B. Capture the vapors and re-burn them.
C. Treat the exhaust.

PCV Valve• The PCV valve has
two functions:
1. To regulate the
amount of vapor
entering the intake
manifold at various
engine speeds.
2. Prevent damage
from backfire.

PCV Service
• Replace PCV valve every 30,000 miles. • Clean the breather filter if applicable. The valve
can be cleaned also if you don’t want to replace it.• Inspect hoses for proper routing and deterioration.• Check the air cleaner housing for oil build up.• Check PCV system function. 1) Use the PCV vacuum tester.
2) Use the tachometer and look for RPM drop.
![Page 14: Unit of Study Types and Sources of Emissions Vapor Control Systems Improvement of Combustion Treating Exhaust Gas Measuring Exhaust Emissions Diagnostics](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062618/5514f67b550346a80c8b4f5b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
PCV Trouble-Shooting Notes
• Defective PCV system can cause big time vacuum leaks. This can lead to a very fast idle speed or stalling.
• If the valve or hoses get clogged the vapors back-up into the air cleaner clogging it too and puts oil in the air cleaner housing.
• A strange problem is if a valve cover gasket starts leaking oil winds up in the air cleaner also.
![Page 15: Unit of Study Types and Sources of Emissions Vapor Control Systems Improvement of Combustion Treating Exhaust Gas Measuring Exhaust Emissions Diagnostics](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062618/5514f67b550346a80c8b4f5b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Oil in Air Cleaner Housing
• Gasket leaks mess up the vacuum on a PCV system.
• Manifold sucks air though the leaking gasket and the blow-by backs-up into the air cleaner.
![Page 16: Unit of Study Types and Sources of Emissions Vapor Control Systems Improvement of Combustion Treating Exhaust Gas Measuring Exhaust Emissions Diagnostics](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062618/5514f67b550346a80c8b4f5b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Fuel Tank Evaporative Controls
• Captures HC evaporation from the fuel tank.
• Seals the gas tank and store the vapors in a charcoal canister.
• Vapor are purged to the intake manifold when the engine is running.

• Some charcoal canisters have a filter under them that needs to be replaced every 30,000 miles.
• Inspect the hoses for proper routing and deterioration.
• Check to gas cap.• 1996 and newer cars can be tested for leaks in the
system.• Use the scan tool to check the status of the purge
control solenoid or control valves.
