[QUOTE="03Sssnake, post: 10925100, member: 7121"] A breather is a bad idea, you introduce un-metered air into the engine and diminish the effectiveness of the PCV system.The intent of the PCV system is to reduce crankcase pressure manifested from blow-by during the engine cycle. Engine vacuum is much more efficient at drawing these gases out of the crankcase than venting to atmosphere. A properly working PCV system also creates a small vacuum on the crankcase that does slightly improve ring seal and power output. A PCV system also keeps a clean air flow through the crankcase that removes the moisture, unburnt fuel, and corrosive combustion by-products that 'flash-off' during operating temps. The engine needs a properly functioning PCV systerm and without a 'flush' through the crankcase, these by-products will re-condense back onto the internal parts and contaminate engine oil causing engine damage over time.
