The Gates EMH960 is a high-quality engine crankcase vent valve designed to maintain proper pressure control within your vehicle's crankcase ventilation system. This PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) valve features a 3/16-inch connection and provides reliable regulation of blow-by gases that escape past the piston rings during engine operation.

Key Features:

• Direct-fit replacement ensures proper OE fit and straightforward installation
• Manufactured with durable, high-quality materials resistant to oil and heat
• Spring-loaded design regulates airflow based on engine vacuum conditions
• Prevents oil vapor leaks and maintains optimal crankcase pressure
• Acts as a check valve to protect against backfire and prevent crankcase damage

The PCV valve plays a critical role in your vehicle's emission control system by recycling crankcase gases back into the intake manifold where they are re-burned during combustion. This process reduces harmful emissions, prevents pressure buildup that can damage engine seals and gaskets, and helps maintain engine efficiency. A properly functioning PCV valve also prevents moisture accumulation and sludge formation that can reduce oil life and cause premature engine wear.
