Scotty said, “Many cars burn oil because the PCV valve has gone bad. PCV stands for positive crankcase ventilation. It’s part of the anti-pollution system.”

Scotty pointed out a small piece on the engine and said, “Here’s the valve at the end of the hose. It just pops out, and it costs like $7 at AutoZone.”

He added, “If your engine is burning oil, don’t necessarily think that you need a new engine. You might only need a cheap little PCV valve.”

Bam!
