Inspection

Among
the

possible
troubles
of
this
device
the

most

liable
is
the

permanent
opening
of
valve

This
trouble
is
not

noticed
in
warm
weather
but
in

cold
weather

appears
as

poor

performance
of

engine

such

as

tardy
acceleration
hesitation
or

engine
stall
In

such

case
first

inspect
this

device
before

checking
the

carburetor

Another
trouble
which

might
be

expected
is
that
the

underhood
air
is

kept
closed

by
the
valve

regardless
of

the

temperature
of
suction
air
around
the

sensor
while

the

engine

This
ttOuble

appears
in
the

form

of

extremely
excessive
fuel

consumption
or
decrease
in

power

should

it

at

The

immediately
after

Carefully
watch
the

to

that

it

This
should

CRANKCASE

EMISSION
CONTROL

SYSTEM

This

system
returns
blow

by

gas
to
both
the

intake

manifold
and
carburetor

air
cleaner
The
Posirive
Crankcase
Ventilation

PCV
valve
is

provided
to
conduct
crankcase
blow

by

gas
to
the
intake

manifold

Duirng
partial
throttle

operation
of

the

enigne

the
intake

manifold

sucks
the

blow

by
gas
through
the

valve

Normally
the

capacity
of
the

valve
is
sufficient
to

handle

any
blow

by
and

a
small

amount
of

ventilating
air

The

ventilating
air

is
then

drawn
from

the
clean
side
of

the
carburetor
air

cleaner

through
the

tube

connecting

carburetor
air

cleaner
to
rocker
cover

intu
the
crankcase

Under
full

throttle
condition
the
manifold
vacuum
is

insufficient
to
draw

the
blow

by
flow

through
the
valve

and
its
flow

goes

through
the
tube

connection
in
the

reverse
direction

In
cars
with
an

excessively
high
blow

by

some
of

the
flow

will

go
through
