Turbo Diesel Models

A vent hose from the cylinder head cover to the air intake (ahead of compressor) draws crankcase vapors into the engine. A by-pass line between air cleaner and vent line allows extra air to be drawn in during heavy load operation. An oil separator in the air cleaner has a drain line (with check valve) to the oil pan to drain off excess oil.
