Crankcase Ventilation Systems: Maintenance

Visually inspect the rubber hose between air cleaner and cylinder head for cracks, damage or restrictions about every 15, 000 miles or once a year. If a strong smell of hot oil or increased engine noise is evident, check the system for leaks or possible disconnected hose.
