The PCV valve is the best emissions device ever installed on an engine in terms of the good it does, i.e., suck all the bad stuff out of the crankcase. This bad stuff is blowby and water vapor. Blowby is made up of unburned combustion products and acid. You know what moisture does besides rust metal, it creates sludge. Be glad your engine is equipped with a PCV valve.
