This assembly is designed for use in specific diesel engines, particularly those designated as L5P. It modifies the factory crankcase ventilation system. The original system typically recirculates crankcase gases back into the intake, which can lead to oil buildup in the intake tract. This modification redirects these gases to vent externally, preventing recirculation.
The implementation of this change can offer several advantages. By preventing oil accumulation in the intake, it can improve airflow and potentially enhance engine performance and efficiency. Furthermore, reducing oil deposits on intake components may contribute to the longevity of these parts. Historically, similar modifications have been employed in other diesel engine applications to address issues related to oil accumulation within the intake system.
