But, in practice, I've read that a clogged PCV valve increases crankcase pressure to the point of forcing oil droplets past control rings and causing the engine to burn oil. The excess pressure also causes seals and gaskets to leak. | |

Otherwise you would pull a vacuum on the crank case, they have worked this was since the pcv system was invented. | |
