Pcv System Pics Pics

[syclone1100]

So I did a search on how the PCV system should be hooked-up and found what I needed but I am one of those people that needs to see it for it all to make since:idea: ... I need to see some pics of the passenger side pcv and see what some of you guys have done:dunno: .. The driverside I have put in a K/N breather in and I just need to see what the otherside is suppose to look like. Just so people know I have a cone filter set up on the passenger side to replace the stock intake... If someone has or can take a few pics and either post or e-mail them to me it would be a really bis help:tup:

That didn't help at all did it? To tell you the truth, if the PCV system wasn't idiot resistant on my truck (you can't put it together wrong) I'd never be able to work on this mess.

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

It did a little I need to see the passenger side though were the two PCV valves are suppose to be connected at a Y... I want to go down to The 1 in the back and close off the 1 in the front... I want to see if any one has or can take pics of what this is suppose to look like... So I can make sure I have it right...

It's custom but it might help...

1 in the valve cover and 1 in the air box. Both are hooked to the "T" and draw vacume at the TB.

Chris (mmp142965) has a huge gallery of pics and even completely redid his pcv system so there's bound to be some good shots of the oem setup in the engine section here

It goes to my KB Cold Air Intake box. There is a PCV valve on the other end that you can't see.

Look at the bottom side of the part you took off so that you could take the pic. That's a guess since I've never worked on an even remotely stock SyTy. :rotf:

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

there are two pcv valves in the that picture with the T, the other end goes to the intake air box, before the turbo.

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

left is the boost side pcv valve and goes to the tb
right is the vacuum side pcv and goes to the air filter or crossover tube

I changed it to this so no oil goes into pcv valves, keeping oil out of the crossover tube, turbo, and TB/plenum. either way works.

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

Why do you want to close the front PCV valve? You will lose the ability to vent the crankcase under boost. GM designed it that way for a reason. If you don't want oil in the turbo, put an air/oil seperator in the front PCV line to the intake tract.

You may be right. I've only had the truck apart a couple of times and that was almost a year ago.

This little tank would help out also but it's more $$$.

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

Hey MMP do you have a pic of where that blue line is connected to so I can see how you didi it????

 

[mmp142965]

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

the blue line was only temporary. This is the new setup, but the blue line connects to the same place as this one does - the crossover tube. If you are running a Kenne Bell intake or something similar, it connects to the air filter tube. see below pic.

the top fitting at the between the orange hose and the airfilter box is where you would plumb the vacuum side pcv. (blue hose in the pic you are referencing) the location does not have to be exact, just somewhere close to the airfilter. The idea is that the air being sucked into the turbo creates a vacuum as it passes the above fitting. this vacuum evacuates the crank case via the vac side pcv valve.

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

Got it MMP.. So if I ran that blue tube to a oil/air seperater then a line from the seperator to the air filter with pcv connected I should be OK!! right???? Also where did you get the air/oil seperator from and what part# is it????

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

Does it hurt anything to not have a oil seperator? My old turbo leaked some oil and it got into the T/B and intercooler is that a hudge deal?

Re: Pcv System Pics Pics

Now that I went out and looked at mine im more confused.I have 2 ports coming out of the back of the T/B, the top 1 is plugged off at the moment, not by me, the bottem 1 goes down and connects to the valve cover in a T and then splits off and goes to back of the motor with a bolt in the end of it.I still have the connector on the bottem of the T/B that goes to nothing, doesnt even have a hose on it.I dont have the factory air box and crossover tube any more and havent finished the air box so do I have to connect the T/B?

When you build a custom air box on the pass. side to get air to it do you cut a hole in the core support or does it get enough flow just sitting there? Please help totally lost!
