F POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV) SYSTEM POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV) SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The PCV valve is operated by the intake manifold vacuum. 4 When the engine is running at idle the PCV valve is opened slightly and a small amount of blow by gas is drawn into the intake manifold to be burned. At higher engine speeds the PCV valve is opened further, allowing a larger amount of blow by gas to be drawn into the intake manifold. VENTILATION I PCV VALVE Inspection 1. Warm up the engine to the normal operating tempera- ture and run it at idle. 2. Disconnect the PCV valve together with the ventilation hose from the cylinder head cover. 3. Block the PCV valve opening. 4. Verify that vacuum is felt. 5. Remove the PCV valve. 6. Blow through the valve from port A and verify that air comes out of port B. 7. Blow through the valve from port B and verify that no air comes out of port A. 8. Replace the PCV valve if necessary. Gartner Banana

Warm up the engine to the normal operating tempera- ture. Note When using an externally powered timing light and/or tachometer connect it to the power connector (Blue: l-pin). Warning Do not ground the power connector. terminal (Blue: l-pin); some fuses will be burned. 4. Connect a timing light and tachometer to the data link connector terminal (IG-). 5. Connect the SST and set TEST SW to "SELF TEST" or connect data link connector terminals TEN and GND with a jumper wire. 6. Check the idle speed, and set it to specification if neces- sary (Refer to section F.) ' Idle speed (rpm):800-900 (MT) 75-50 (AT) 7. Verify that the timing mark (white) on the crankshaft pulley is aligned with the indicator pin. Ignition timing: 9"-11" BTDC (at idle) 8. If the marks are not aligned, remove the ignition coil bracket and push the ignition coil aside for easy access and then loosen the crankshaft position sensor lock bolts, and turn the crankshaft position sensor to make the adjustment. 9. Tighten the crankshaft position sensor lock bolts to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 19-25 N-m (1 3-2.6 kgf~m, l4--19 ft.lbf) 10. After adjusting the ignition timing, disconnect the jumper wire or SST from the data link connector. 11. Increase the engine speed and verify that the ignition timing advances. Gartner Banana
