Blow by occurs when combustion gases are forced past the piston rings into the crankcase. Blow down refers to the time between the exhaust and transfer port openings in degrees of crankshaft rotation.

Blow by occurs when the equal pressures at the top and bottom of the piston of an IC Engine exists it won't work and it will blast. To avoid this situation the blower is used at the bottom of the piston(crank case)ie., Creating negative pressure inside the cylinder.

Blow down is the amount of time/distance/degrees between exhaust port opening and transfer port opening.

Blow-by occurs when the explosion that occurs in your


engine's combustion chamber causes fuel, air and moisture
to be forced past the rings into the crankcase. Your
engine's rings must maintain an excellent fit in order to
contain the pressure.

Blowdown is the amount of time/distance/degrees between


exhaust port opening and transfer port opening.
The absolute most accurate description of blowdown would
be... the amount of TIME between the exhaust and transfer
port openings. This "measurement" would of course only be
accurate at one rpm, so blowdown is commonly referred to in
degrees of crank rotation.
