What is the function of the Wuling PVC valve?

The Wuling PVC valve primarily serves the function of oil-gas separation. Below is an introduction to relevant knowledge about the Wuling Zhiguang: 1. Power: The 2020 Wuling Zhiguang is equipped with a 1.2L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 56 kW and a maximum torque of 108 Nm. 2. Dimensions: Taking the 2020 Wuling Zhiguang 1.2L Utility Model (National VILS) as an example, its dimensions are 3797 mm in length, 1510 mm in width, and 1820 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2500 mm and a fuel tank capacity of 38 liters.
This PCV valve on the Wuling vehicle is actually a key component of the engine crankcase ventilation system. I've been driving Wuling for cargo delivery for seven years. It functions like a regulating valve, specifically responsible for controlling gas flow in the crankcase. During engine operation, some exhaust gases leak into the crankcase. If these gases aren't promptly removed, they can increase crankcase pressure - at best causing oil leaks that dirty the engine compartment, at worst damaging oil seals. The PCV valve draws these gases into the intake manifold to be reburned, maintaining proper pressure. If it gets clogged or fails, you'll notice increased fuel consumption, slight shaking during cold starts, and blue smoke from the exhaust pipe. I just helped a friend replace his valve last week, which solved the problem. I recommend checking it every 40,000 km - after all, a new valve only costs a few dozen yuan.
