Crankcase ventilation

A positive crankcase ventilation system is used to vent crankcase gases to the air induction system.

The gases are drawn from the camshaft cover, through a depression limiting valve and into the turbocharger intake.

As engine speed increases, the depression limiting valve progressively closes thereby limiting the depression in the crankcase.

Engine number location

The engine number will be found on the side of the cylinder block adjacent to Number 2 cylinder.
