Abstract

A PCV valve that regulates the flow of gases to a turbocharger. A spring biased plunger member is used to restrict and meter the flow of gases through the PCV valve. The plunger member can include an axially extending through opening extending through the length of the plunger member to allow back flow of gases to be routed to the turbocharger. The through opening can be selectively opened and closed by a valve module contained in the plunger member.
