Crankcase ventilation for 97 850 TURBO 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Frank on  Tue Feb 12 04:52 CST 2008 [RELATED]

Okay. I've spent the last two hours trying to cobble together information as to checking out the crankcase ventilation syystem on my 97 TURBO. I've waded through bits and pieces of information which seems to confuse what parts and proceedures are used between turbos and N/As. Flame traps, pvcs (oui/non), ptv, etc. I am above knowing the difference between a hammer and nail, but not much.

Is there a basic show and tell FAQ or link that would specifically apply to 850 TURBOS,turbos,turbos......?

Thanks, as always

97 855 GLT (turbo, turbo turbo....) ;-0

    When you're replaceing the PC system parts be sure to check the vacuum line connection on the flame trap. Alot of times it's plugged and needs to be drilled out.

    You want parts 1, 2, 4, 17 in the turbo section. The clamps are optional, but they are crimp on type clamps and require a crimping tool. I suggest you go to a local parts store and get tubing clamps for the large pipes and fuel hose clamps for the small ones.

    Also get the intake manifold gasket from the $dealer, much better than FCP's piece of junk.

    1.) check for smoke from your oil dipstick hole....
    2.) put a piece of plastic over your oil cap hole and observe weather it gets sucked it (negative pressure) or if it bubbles up (positive pressure).
