The valve (11) has a guide housing (12) installed into an oil outlet opening (9). A valve plate (13) is stroke-adjustably arranged at the housing by a clip connection for controlling a central passage (14) of the housing. The connection is arranged such that the connection permits adjustment movements of the valve plate between opening and closing positions. The valve plate is driven in an installation condition by force of gravity into the opening position. The housing carries a seal (17) cooperating with an opening setting in an opening wall (19) in the installation condition. An independent claim is also included for a crank case ventilation system comprising an oil separating mechanism for separating oil from blow by gas. Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Ventil (11) zur Steuerung eines Fluidstroms durch eine Öffnung (9), insbesondere Ölaustragventil (11) einer Kurbelgehäuseentlüftungseinrichtung (1), mit einem Führungsgehäuse (12) zum Einbau in die Öffnung (9), mit einer Ventilplatte (13), die zum Steuern einer zentralen Durchgangsöffnung (14) des Führungsgehäuses (12) relativ zum Führungsgehäuse (12) hubverstellbar am Führungsgehäuse (12) angeordnet ist, wobei die Ventilplatte (13) mittels einer Clipsverbindung (16) hubverstellbar am Führungsgehäuse (13) angeordnet ist.
