Im wondering if there isnt some electric type solution to this problem. plugging the heads seems like a good thing to start the problem is that venting is just a poor way of dealing with this. originally when the pcv system was first added to cars it extended engine life substantially its critical system to longevity especially with a turbo charged car. i once saw study that showed a certain amout of horsepower gain for every inch of vaccuum you can put on the crankcase. what about getting some vacuum from the exhaust for this. that is what i did in my last car and i never had issue with pcv system. try placing a boost gauge on your crankccase you may be surprised
I did the pins on my m340i and now I I’m getting bogging when high rpm. I bought the Vargas oil cap breather hopefully that fix if not I’ll have to also buy a catch can
Hi Kern, with the pcv ports plugged, what does it now change interms of catch tank, vent hose setup? I have the ports plugged, run 2 catch tanks; 1 for the valve cover pcv breather and 1x for the bottom crank case vent... It still is dumping oil into my intake intake pipe. do I need to use a vented pcv cover setup? Your response would be very helpful to put an end to this nightmare I am having, thanks alot
@kern417 - hey mate are the TU B58 2 port supra motor prone to oil consumption issues or is it because the stock 0-20w oil is too thin? got alot of blow by as well.
@@kern417 cheers. ive only done 6000kms since last service and oil has dropped below mid point. it doesn't show me the graph anymore (oil graph) and just says oil ok. dealership said everythings fine for the moment but i have my doubts.
Is this really a problem? Do the Gen II Supra guys with big top mounts running 7-9 seconds 1/4 mile times go this route too? I guess I've never heard of this being a problem but I don't follow the builders like P2 and others for what they are doing on their builds.
Running 7 sec you will face a whole lot of other problems and ‘potential’ issue my friend. Cap walk, the need for welding water ports on the head, etc. Venting is needed on these engines.
hello bro on my 540ix i have this error “160001 crankshaft sensor, signal: Missing” and when running low rpm i feel a lack of gas any ideas will help 🙏🏼
@@kern417 Ive just change the sensor today runned ISTA+ on it no errors , go on a drive i can feel a difference but still in low speed/rpms its like jacking , slipping ... also the fuel consumption went up remarkably i'm thinking maybe the VANOS Actuator or maybe Seleonids but no codes till now ..
Hi Kern, if i go on my supra for pcv block off pin, which other pcv mod i have to pair for reduce pressure? Oil cap breather and a catch can or just cap breather with oem pcv system? Thanks in advance 🙏
@stickyglue3563 hi sir! With BF i had purchased the BMR catch can kit, include the cap vented into their catch can design and ccv and pcv connection to same can
@@Dailycrashouts i guess is an oil pump problem at that point, my Blackmarket race kit cause no problem and relief the pressure builded by all the parts interested
if this is your first pcv mod, you'll want to add another vent for positive pressure. it works on most any bmw engine, but the pcv vent solution will vary.
@@kern417 thanks for getting back! At the moment I have oil in the pcv value and unwanted oil is getting into the intake, so I have also oil in my charge pipe. How would you best solve it? Specially if the car is running higher boost pressure?
Great video but is there research out there that shows this is a good idea? Is there tested evidence? What sort of power is this an issue at? Quite curious!
Vaccum on the crankcase is so important it helps seal piston rings on normal driving so the engine has less blow by, u are just creating more of a problem and will be burning more oil and have more blow by
Incorrect, almost every diesel engine vents directly to atmosphere as there is no vaccum on those engines. They also have a longer average lifespan compared to gas engines..
The "vacuum" increases the pressure differential across the ring package, producing an improved ring seal. Just look it up thats why high hp guys making 3000hp run vacuum pumps or use there dry sump system, the main reason this was popular on n54 engines is cause of build up on the intake ports
The vacuum makes it more efficient. That's why it can run through (6) 1/4" ports in the head. When converting to VTA, you compensate by switching to (possibly multiple) -10AN outlets for enough venting. Like I said in the video you can never have too much. But when a vacuum system is inefficient or unreliable, you convert to VTA to keep it simple and reliable. I have no excess blowby after converting to VTA. If you do, add more vents.
@@kern417 I don't have any issues cause I'm still using stock system cause its has zero issues making 800hp, one vta smells horrible for a daily and two if u live in the colder weather depending on hose lenght to your catch cans the hott engine vapors will condense into water filling your catch cans and possible freeze the lines, it's a horrible setup all around for a daily car.

How the B58 PCV Works: ruclips.net/video/jI4CRCN-3yM/видео.html
Just to be clear, if doing this on a gen 2 b58, a oil cap breather should be used, correct?
Excellent content as always!
Great vid, thank you for tis mate.
Question: any DYI with venting methods AFTER blocking these?

Didn’t work I got code 21b2c7 and also code 16050a.
What should I do if the cylinder head valve on cylinder 5 is going bad ? It is wet inside only cylinder 5
Hi! Do you have any idea on metric about the size of the plugs Kern?
would this still be needed for like 30’psi on a ultra flow if i already have a ross racing pcv delete and catch can?
Thank you.

You figure this out yet
@@rayraycarter04you figure this out yet too?
Which turbo are you running?
By doing this do it mess with emission testing at all when time for DEQ?
not on it's own, but deleting other parts may.
What size tap and plugs didnu use ?😊

@kern417 - hey mate are the TU B58 2 port supra motor prone to oil consumption issues or is it because the stock 0-20w oil is too thin? got alot of blow by as well.
No. If you have a lot of blowby then it's likely a bad valve cover
@@kern417 cheers. ive only done 6000kms since last service and oil has dropped below mid point. it doesn't show me the graph anymore (oil graph) and just says oil ok. dealership said everythings fine for the moment but i have my doubts.
Installed pcv pins and occ venting pcv and ccv, now I have faint smell in cabin from time to time, has this happened to anyone else?
Is this really a problem? Do the Gen II Supra guys with big top mounts running 7-9 seconds 1/4 mile times go this route too? I guess I've never heard of this being a problem but I don't follow the builders like P2 and others for what they are doing on their builds.
Yes. Running higher hp increases boost and the risk of damaging the valve cover.
Running 7 sec you will face a whole lot of other problems and ‘potential’ issue my friend. Cap walk, the need for welding water ports on the head, etc. Venting is needed on these engines.
Will it be possible that instead of blocking the ports, just tap it ans install another check valve?
I'm not sure there's enough space to do that in those holes or the holes in the valve cover. Someone would have to Design one with stronger flaps.

@@alessioluppino4312how has this been working for you?
@@alessioluppino4312 it didn’t work for me I’m still getting the CEL and high engine oil pressure
@@Dailycrashouts i guess is an oil pump problem at that point, my Blackmarket race kit cause no problem and relief the pressure builded by all the parts interested
So the pressure stays in the combustion chamber? What is now compensating for that pressure?
Also will that work for the B48 engine too?
if this is your first pcv mod, you'll want to add another vent for positive pressure. it works on most any bmw engine, but the pcv vent solution will vary.

@@kern417 my mechanic says the pcv value is broken. We could replace the value cover but it might break again. Will an Oil catch can help?
no, it'll just catch the oil but won't fix the problem.
Hi Kevin! When you install the valve cover after fix, you just install new gasket set ? Or something else ? Or you install old gasket ?
Valve covers come with a new gasket 👍🏾
In this case it's recommended to replace the gasket but i didn't

It is a PCV failure. Like i explained in the video, running higher boost pressure can cause it to fail.
Are you on stock trans build?
Yes
Vaccum on the crankcase is so important it helps seal piston rings on normal driving so the engine has less blow by, u are just creating more of a problem and will be burning more oil and have more blow by
