Is there a point of blowby? And where do the gasses go as they only go down?
Blow by would indicate something has failed either a piston ring or scored piston liner,it is blown into the cracks case and either out the crank case breather pipe or dip stick hole.
You don’t want blowby, but there will always be a little bit since it’s impossible for the rings to seal 100%. Too much blowby would indicate worn cylinders and/or rings.
Blowby occurs all time past the rings into the Crankcase. Amount varies depending on load and engine speed. On diesel engines usually the breather and filter separate the oil from the combustion by products. The oil is routed back to the crankcase while the “cleaned” gases are either routed back to the intake or to the atmosphere depending on if it is a closed or an open crankcase system. Even on a brand new engine some amount of blowby is normal.
to the crankcase-oilpan-PCV-then goes back to the intake.
It becomes a problem when you have to check and replace oil level every week :(
Blowby is when you are doing a Flyby and blow the engine up.😂
Another great video!
That gas is “going for the gap that exists” :D
Blow by is why most engines have pcv valves to reduce crank case pressure caused by blow by
