Condition

Conclusion

Crankcase breather clogged or inoperative.

NOTE:  If breather is integral part of valve cover and 

cannot be serviced separately, replace valve 

cover and recheck pressure.

Disassemble breather, clean parts thoroughly, check 

sealing surfaces for 

fl

 atness, reassemble, and recheck 

pressure. 

Seals and/or gaskets leaking. Loose or improperly torque 

fasteners.

Replace all worn or damaged seals and gaskets. Make 

sure all fasteners are tightened securely. Use appropriate 

torque valves and sequences when necessary.

Piston blow by or leaky valves (con

fi

 rm by inspecting 

components).

Recondition piston, rings, cylinder bore, valves and 

valves guides.

Restricted exhaust.

Check exhaust screen/spark arrestor (if equipped). Clean 

or replace as needed. Repair or replace any other 

damaged/restricted muf

fl

 er or exhaust system parts.

CRANKCASE VACUUM TEST

 

WARNING

Carbon Monoxide can cause severe nausea, 

fainting or death.
Avoid inhaling exhaust fumes.

Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon 

monoxide. Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless, 

and can cause death if inhaled.

To test crankcase vacuum with manometer:
1.  Insert rubber stopper into oil 

fi

 ll hole. Be sure pinch 

clamp is installed on hose and use tapered adapters 

to connect hose between stopper and one 

manometer tube. Leave other tube open to 

atmosphere. Check that water level in manometer is 

at 0 line. Make sure pinch clamp is closed.

2.  Start engine and run no-load high speed.
3.  Open clamp and note water level in tube.
 

Level in engine side should be a minimum of 10.2 

cm (4 in.) above level in open side.

 

If level in engine side is less than speci

fi

 ed (low/no 

vacuum), or level in engine side is lower than level in 

open side (pressure), check for conditions in table 

below. 

4.  Close pinch clamp before stopping engine.

To test crankcase vacuum with vacuum/pressure gauge:
1.  Remove dipstick or oil 

fi

 ll plug/cap.

2.  Install adapter into oil 

fi

 ll//dipstick tube opening, 

upside down over end of a small diameter dipstick 

tube, or directly into engine if a tube is not used. 

Insert barbed gauge 

fi

 tting into hole in stopper. 

3.  Run engine and observe gauge reading.
 

Analog tester–needle movement to left of 0 is a 

vacuum, and movement to right indicates a pressure. 

 

Digital tester–depress test button on top of tester.

 

Crankcase vacuum should be a minimum of 10.2 cm 

(4 in.) of water. If reading is below speci

fi

 cation, or if 

pressure is present, check table below for possible 

causes and conclusions.

 

WARNING

Rotating Parts can cause severe injury.
Stay away while engine is in operation.

Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all 

moving parts to prevent injury. Never operate engine 

with covers, shrouds, or guards removed.

A partial vacuum should be present in crankcase when engine is operating. Pressure in crankcase (normally caused 

by a clogged or improperly assembled breather) can cause oil to be forced out at oil seals, gaskets, or other available 

spots.
Crankcase vacuum is best measured with either a water manometer or a vacuum gauge. Complete instructions are 

provided in kits.
