Re: open carter and valvecover ventilation bad? (dnbruut)
kinda confused by the question.
Are you asking can you just leave the breather on your valvecover open with nothiig on it? No you cannot unless you like oil all over everything.
What is an open carter????
Rereading your post before you hit submit is a great idea to make sure you spelled **** right and you make sense in your posting.

i'm sorry for pissing you of or confusing you.
my quistion is:
can it harm the engine if i don't put a vacuum source to the valvecover-ventilation and to the carter-ventilation?
i know if pressure and gasses can't escape it will harm the engine and oil but does itneed a vacuum or would it be OK to leave them open(with a small flter or catch-can)
thanks!

mine are open to the atmospere until I can buy or make a catch can and the valve cover breather and crankase evacuation ports dont blow out a ton of oil, they do blow out some but its only like two or three drops a month nothing that you should worry about. Ive been running my car like this for about 3 months and no problems from it
