Thank you for this, I traded in my MU-X for my dad's hilux and I never bothered checking for blowby until last week. Until I watched this I was worried as heck that the truck might fail on me as I was driving. No smoke out the exhaust even near red line, fuel efficient as hell (12km/L city) and no observable power loss. I thought that I accidentally got a junker because it was shooting out droplets of oil from the fill port on norml operation when I took the cap off. I can't tell you how relieved I am. Thank you
Thanks for the info, I experienced the same with my chevy. And was freaked out when spray/sprinkles of oil was coming out of the oil filling cap. Thanks again.
I agree there good engines my d4d hilux has 390000 on clock and has not missed a beat just had first set of new injectors put in at 380000 and a new starter motor and radiator a couple years ago that’s all I service it my self oil every 5 oil filter every 10
Thanks for the video. I have seen the same chicken little videos and posts about blow-by. All engines have blow-by. The more cylinders your engine has the less noticeable the pulses of vacuum and pressure. If one hooks up a manometer, they will also see pulses of both vacuum and pressure. This is normal as each each piston reaches TDC and BDC in cyclic pattern. If you set your manomter to log the average of those pulses, and your crankcase ventilation system is working properly, and you do not have excessive blow-by, then you will see an average reading of vacuum, generally less than 1 inHg. .
Yes! My 2KD in my 2005 hiace with 250ks on it is so good, awesome engine. I do the regular servicing and fluid and filter changes and it is so reliable. And the oil cap dances around just like that 😂
Its normal as long as how strong it tend to push the cap, the vacuum tends to suck it down. Whats important is that vacuum is as strong as how strong blowby is. It should be equal. Whats not good is that at cold start when you remove the cap, it smells like a over roasted beef or something like a cooked hair. Also at cold start, it should not have even a tiny bit of smoke coming out of the filler cap. But at normal engine temp, it should smoke the moment you remove the cap, but for 2-3 secs only. It should not smoke also at the oil dipstick. No smoke at oil dipstick means engine is at best condition. Dont worry if it has a tiny bit of blowby gas coming out of it, its absolutely normal.
Cheers mate I have a 1kz-te prado and i did this and was a little worried but its just had a top end rebuild and piston and rings done so i was a bit lost as to why it would be happening
Mate my 4D56 motor runs pretty much identical as that motor in the video. If I take the cap off it splatters oil all over the place, but it has no blow-by at the Crankcase vent hose that runs to the catch can. There is plenty of hot air being pumped out of there but its always dry. I have done 65,000 K's and the catch can has been on it for 30,000K and the catch can filter is still as clean as a whistle. It's not all that noisy for a Triton either, it never runs hot & it goes like a rocket on the highway. It has got me miffed because I haven't seen any others do this. Most of the Triton's I have seen seem to pump out tons of oil through the crankcase breather tube.
The blow by on my 1.6hdi 300k+ km is double that and it runs fine, idles fine with out leaks. You might start to worry when you see white smoke from your exhaust
Hello I have an 06 Toyota hilux3.0 d4d 1KD engine I rebuilt the engine and one of the bolts on the injectors return pipe were loose so diesel flooded the engine I drained it tightened the bolts changed the oil it’s running but is there a probable chance I count have damaged the engine Please advise and thank you in advance.
If you hear a humming noise from the oil filler hole and air pressure and oil bieng pushed out and your engine is burning oil there is something wrong with your pistons
Just did a rebuild (new crank, bearings), was running sweet, took for a 10min run, changed down gears from 5th to 4th & started to hear a rattle/knock?
1CD-FTV is blowing every oil seal, there is significant pressure building in the PVC pipe. I did the injector seals, no difference at all. Is it blown or something I could have missed?
I've got a 1kz with 450k km+ and it has significantly more blowby through the cap but it's clean, zero smoke. Is smoke the indicator of a real problem?
Hello, good video, I had my motor repaired, replaced pistons, cilinders, valves, and still have a little blowby coming out from the oil filler. It may be normal, I hope until the piston rings get their possition. Now it has 6000 km of repaired. thanks.
Can you explain what's making that to happen over there. I'm talking about that small amount of blowby.It doesn't happening over the oil dip stick hole right.what the reason only for it to come over from oil fill cap port?
In my Skoda Alh, the cap dances and the crankcase blowby pressure is high. The breather/PCV is cleaner without any blockage. There is no oil spills anywhere. Is this normal?
What does smoke mean ? The blow by looked normal but a fair bit of white smoke - also I could hear something electric sparking once engine turned off ???? Any tips guys Thanks heaps
I had this jerk tell me the pistons was gone in my van which was up for sale.. He had it running then taken the cap off..I couldn't understand how he could tell from just lifting the cap?
Wayne Hill depends. It’s most likely just oil vapors if there’s no pressure. If there’s a lot of “smoke” and or pressure then it may be broken rings. Or sometimes could even be a bad vacuum pump and or vacuum leak. Sometimes even turbos can cause it although I’ve never seen that happen.
When he said “I don’t want you to worry about things unnecessarily” thanks dad!
Thank goodness, I just bought a 2nd hand Prado and got it home last night to see this amount of blowby. Thought I got a 🍋

Likewise. I got a old ssangyong actyon that comes with a mercedes engine. Did a a cap test and freaked out. This was a big relief
I genuinely thank you for this video
Thanks for the info, I experienced the same with my chevy. And was freaked out when spray/sprinkles of oil was coming out of the oil filling cap. Thanks again.
I just rented an 8-month-old panel van, with only 7k miles on the odometre, and the oil from the hose sprinkled all over my face
However if the oil squirts are excessive, that cant be good.
@@bebbuinc7611 any squirting, is an abomination
Very important infos 👍 we need another video showing us how bad blow by look like
American videos show it already, on used-up pick-up trucks
I love video like these from experts with lots of experience. Thanks mate
Good informative, straight foward, no messing around. Excellent 👍

Brad Harland same as my brothers D4D 06 hilux, just hit 300000km only had injectors at 290000 and a new alternator. Still running sweet
The blow-by on 4JJ3 (MUX) is the same as in this video and I was a little worries and confused until I found this video. Thanks.

To be fair Ive got a few Barras that run almost without any noticable blowby like this when the oil cap is off.

I have some smoke coming out, thats bad sign? diesel 1.6 TDI golf
Thanks mate I was starting to freak out until I seen this video
Cheers mate

Thank you for pointing this out I'm sick to death of telling people this BS test is nothing.
Yes I loved that choo choo, much rather hear your impersonation than hear it from my qd32t 🤣
What if theres an oil and smoke coming out of a dipstick?
Crank case pressure rings are gone pushing pressure into your bottom end thats proper blow by 😂
What if oil only splashes are coming out after engine oil cap removal
Legend thanks 😂. We just worry about our Babies
Good video and straight to the point.

What does smoke coming out from there mean
piston rings@@Adamsadowy
the 4d56 is a bloody good motor mate you little beauty

Great informative video. You’re a life saver
Apprentice mechanic just did that to my 2015 Hilux ute, had 4 speckles on his hand and said it requires a rebuild, he's out of line?
🤣✌️
I dropped my guts the other day and made speckles in me undies and my Mrs said I was out of line.
Hello I have an 06 Toyota hilux3.0 d4d 1KD engine I rebuilt the engine and one of the bolts on the injectors return pipe were loose so diesel flooded the engine
I drained it tightened the bolts changed the oil it’s running but is there a probable chance I count have damaged the engine
Please advise and thank you in advance.
Relax
Excellent video thanks keep it up 👍
What is there is smoke
Thanks man for the video.
What does it mean if you have small amounts of what looks and smells like exhaust smoke coming out of oil filler & dip stick hole?
If you hear a humming noise from the oil filler hole and air pressure and oil bieng pushed out and your engine is burning oil there is something wrong with your pistons
Hi mate, thanks for explain, but it’s normar too if there are Vapor?
Thanks for sharing Anthony. HooRoo
If it throws a lot of oil drops instead of steam is it considered to be blowby?
Interesting. Always asked myself if blowby is enginetype specific. The pressure is going to the air inlet. Depends on how this is designed?
Where to find (positive crankcase ventilation 2GD-FTV

Just did a rebuild (new crank, bearings), was running sweet, took for a 10min run, changed down gears from 5th to 4th & started to hear a rattle/knock?
Thank you
Goood example chu chu thanks bro
1CD-FTV is blowing every oil seal, there is significant pressure building in the PVC pipe. I did the injector seals, no difference at all. Is it blown or something I could have missed?
Maybe you’ve got a catch can the breathing system is blocked this is one good reason not to have a CC
*Hello sir, when u take the video is the engine cold or normal working temp???*
What about when it sprays and covers your hand? Some have a little like yours but a petrol mazda? My hand has covered in black oil spots
I've got a 1kz with 450k km+ and it has significantly more blowby through the cap but it's clean, zero smoke. Is smoke the indicator of a real problem?
Yeah I just looked at a 2011 triton blow by was normal , little oil splattering out BUT white smoke .?? Any idea if I should walk away
what about smoke from oil cap ?
Nice work
Hello, good video, I had my motor repaired, replaced pistons, cilinders, valves, and still have a little blowby coming out from the oil filler. It may be normal, I hope until the piston rings get their possition. Now it has 6000 km of repaired. thanks.
Can you explain what's making that to happen over there. I'm talking about that small amount of blowby.It doesn't happening over the oil dip stick hole right.what the reason only for it to come over from oil fill cap port?
I turned the cap loose and it shot straight up in the air and now I can´t find the cap anymore, should I be worried?
Don't be too worried the oil caps aren't too expensive 😅
In my Skoda Alh, the cap dances and the crankcase blowby pressure is high. The breather/PCV is cleaner without any blockage. There is no oil spills anywhere. Is this normal?
Thank god
is it normal to see smoke on 2.0tdi audi, when u open the oil cap??
What does smoke mean ? The blow by looked normal but a fair bit of white smoke - also I could hear something electric sparking once engine turned off ???? Any tips guys Thanks heaps
Could be a bad turbo
They worry about that ahahahhah, bro my mechanic drained my gearbox and added aditional 5 liters to engine. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just remember diesel the best
Yep the mazda I mentioned
it is normal?? my 2.2 dicor Tata safari engine also have same cap jumping ( no gas come out from oil cap )
As far as you dont have oil consumption youare good
Where is this blokes shop?
Mobile and a few locations for work. Victoria
@@Fourby4Diesel thanks mate.Great content.cheers!👍
I had this jerk tell me the pistons was gone in my van which was up for sale.. He had it running then taken the cap off..I couldn't understand how he could tell from just lifting the cap?
I nearly want to scrap my diesel vitara bcoz theres a little bit white smoke came out from the breather..can somebody tell me is that normal?
Why is the 1kd so loud??
Injectors
Is it ok if engine blows up the air from dipstick?
When you pull it out when engine is running...
Thanks
it's the same as the fumes coming from the oil filler hose
dont pull out mate
I laugh when i see guys on the isuzu pages taking the cap off and the chain flings oil out everywhere
Not gona lie.... I would have been one of them guys... well... you live and learn 😂😂
I opendeed it and smoke and some oil cane out but not much air was blowing does smoke mean it’s bad?
Wayne Hill depends. It’s most likely just oil vapors if there’s no pressure. If there’s a lot of “smoke” and or pressure then it may be broken rings. Or sometimes could even be a bad vacuum pump and or vacuum leak. Sometimes even turbos can cause it although I’ve never seen that happen.
And the cap rattles off into the fan and takes the radiator out 😂
