The positive crankcase ventilation system is used to prevent air pollution caused by the discharge of crankcase gases from the crankcase. This system supplies fresh filtered air to the crankcase through the air intake hose. Inside the crankcase, fresh air mixes with crankcase gases, which then pass through the PCV valve into the intake system.
