Oil Trap Hose Posted by Doug W [Email] (#2371) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Doug W) on Sat, 12 Apr 2014 22:24:58 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I just did my valve cover gaskets. I broke the ears on the oil trap hose (PN 5955919). They were extremely brittle. The hose still seems to be retained into the valve cover pretty well by just the o-ring seal. Is having missing ears on the hose connector at the valve cover a big deal for this hose? Could it pop out due to positive crank-case pressure? I drove the car at fairly high boost and the hose stayed put.
BTW the inside of the engine is PRISTINE. Mobil 1 up to 97,000 miles and AmsOil since 100,000 miles. Car is an '04 with 137,000 miles.
