Abstract

An internal combustion engine having an arrangement for compensating for the pressure in the crankcase of the engine. The arrangement includes a control valve which is arranged so that it is exposed on the one hand to the pressure in the crankcase and on the other hand to the pressure prevailing in an operating chamber which is separate from the connection conduit between the crankcase and the suction pipe and communicates with the atmosphere through an auxiliary conduit.
