Chris,
Interesting comments.
The standard UK set-up has no pcv valve, the hoses just connect direct to
vent fittings on the carb barrels.
I still feel that the term crankcase "vent" is wrong. It sort of implies
that the purpose is to allow excess gasses from the crancase to find their
way out. In reality, the system is a much more active "extraction" process,
whereby the induction system positively pulls gasses out, creating a
negative crancase pressure.
