1999 s802.9 PCV Oil trap

[majorcode]

Hi,

I am planning to clean my PCV Oil trap....since it has been run over 165000 km AND PCV Oil trap never been serviced as on manual it should be serviced after 96000 KM.....i hear no voice from PCV but my oil dip stick does gives white smoke and I am sure it clogged.

My Q is should I just get its hoses cleaned or replace the PCV oil trap.

Please suggest.

Considering how cheap the parts are I would go with new ones rather than trying to re-use old ones that have been cleaned, also pay attention to the lower port in the block where the PCV tank connects to the engine as this can block. Attach a rubber hose 5/8" diameter to the port and try to blow through it, if you can hear bubbling from the sump the port is clear, if you can't blow through it you need to sort out the blockage - Mike

I would really consider to replace as parts are not very expensive but labor work is indeed. The problem is I have no easy access to buy these parts in my area.

Thanks.
