Subject: Re: Throttle Body Connections by CorvetteBob on 2013/5/9 8:25:56 Thanks for that OZ, you posted that as I was writing my 2nd post. I'm not looking for equal vacuum on each side, but with the way things are hooked up now, there's not enough vacuum to actually operate the PCV valve. The pcv closes off towards the bottom of the valve w/ high vacuum and opens w/ low vacuum when the spring in the valve overcomes light vacuum and allows it to open. The valve ,IF I understand it correctly, is to be open during periods of lower vacuum (like highway speeds) since times of high vacuum such as idling would allow excess air into the plenum without the benefit of a proper air/fuel ratio, causing the issues at hand. I'm not trying to argue w/ anyone after you've gone to the trouble of helping, I'm just trying to relay how it is that I understand the operation of the PCV valve. |
