Abstract
An internal combustion engine equipped with a blowby gas recirculation system is provided with a jackshaft which is driven by a crankshaft and rotatably supported in a crankcase to operate engine accessories. A rotational part of a centrifugal oil separator is securely connected to an end of the jackshaft to be rotatable with the jackshaft, thereby effectively separating engine oil mist from blowby gas which is sucked through the oil separator to an intake manifold.
