    welcome to my channel if your new here remember to like and subscribe👍in this episode we will be adding a 034 motorsport pcv valve in to the system to see if it give us the vacuum we need to stop the oil cap bouncing around after we removed the pcv system when we fitted a catch can in a previous video. Please comment below what does you oil cap do and do you a have oem pcv system fitted, aftermarket or have it all removed ?

    I feel like a side effect of your engine running properly is a shaking oil cap at idle. It's when your idling and your oil cap is vacuumed to your valve cover that you have a pcv issue. I've worked on many 1.8t engines over the years and they have always operated this way. Then again, im not a professional but it's something I've noticed over the years. Btw, awesome videos Chris!

      Thanks mate that's good to know but connected to the inlet there should be some vacuum as thats a constant vacuum source ?

    • @kennyfontaine4762
      @kennyfontaine4762 Год назад

      @Car Chris Yeah, I think you should have vacuum at the tip or at least on one end of the hockey puck i think. The hockey puck acts as a pvc sort of from what I gather. For instance, if you have both the pcv and the hockey puck removed from your engine, the oil cap ( or in your case cardboard) "should" vacuum to your rocker cover which is a bad thing lol. In the end I think you're fine just running the hockey puck without the pvc. But like I said I'm not professional I just work on my own vehicles and notice things like this one I a while. I wouldn't wanna be responsible if you blew up you're beautiful TT

    Can tell you paid alot of attention in the group and did your own research :D brilliant video mate.. only thing I'd say is that as you explained the turbo will only pull vacuum when it's spooling.. as I always drive with my guage on.. even when your driving at anything less than 15% throttle (low load driving) anything under boost will still give the negative pressure in the inlet :) which still as you know removes the blow by pressure..

    Great video mate. I have seen some interesting things about the whole oil catch cans and oil vapours. The catch cans can actually add resistance which then allows a slight increase in pressure.
    Why not try your PCV without the catch can (just as a test)? Also the oil vapours are more of a problem with direct injection engines. No catch can would just mean cleaning the intake manifold as part of the service.

    Hi Chris, great video, I'm thinking the pcv should be in the original place to suck idle pressure (small vacuum created by inlet manifold), and when you start revving, the turbo kicks in and will create a bigger sucking force and redirect blow-off through catch can? being bigger diameter than the inlet nipple...my 2 cents, just thinking out loud. On ttforum some guys say that you need the pcv even if you got a catch-can, to help oil drain in turbo oil return line, and probably to avoid damaging the valve seals. I guess the muck wil get into the PCV. some of it, but most blow-by will get to catch-can on high revs. How did you solve it since this video?

    I'd be Interested to see I'd it made a difference when you remove the oil cap spacer. I'm pretty sure that doesn't actually have a seal mate.. so would cause a slight vac leak on cam cover which would void any wanted vacuum at the cap.. regardless, you now know that the blow by gasses are being pulled instead of building .. getting recycled just as ever ICE is designed to do.. but with a catch can inline :) cleaner and simpler good job mate

    I think I’ve come to the conclusion that this behavior is completely normal. When I had the standard PCV system fitted, oil cap bounced, figured the components were just worn out, so I replaced with the 034Motorsport kit (no catch can), and there was no difference afterwards.

    I'm not sure how reliable this test of positive pressure or vacuum at the oil filler hole is. The oil pump itself is surely going to always be creating a lot of positive pressure in there. Ive run my 1.8t without pcv for years. But I'm going to put it back in. Having a boost gauge now has made me notice how the inlet is under vacuum most of the time in a daily driver.

    • @CarChris82

  • @benjames6929
    @benjames6929 Год назад

    I think, maybe, the valve is in the wrong place. The engine, at idle is making vacuum and pressure, hence the cardboard.
    Pressure is being vented from the head, into, the T piece, into catch can, then to Puck which then deposits it back to the intake system. Would The pcv valve have to replace the current T piec that splits to the head vent on route into the tank. That way it couldn't draw anything back

    • @CarChris82
      @CarChris82  Год назад +1

      Could be but where it is placed is after the catch can which is what you want if its before the can then no point having a can as it would be just pulling it all back through the inlet before being cleaned by the can it that makes sense
