Hey guys,
I'm in the middle of doing my PCV replacement and seem to have a few extra parts from the FCP kit... mainly an extra clamp, a volvo crankcase vent hose (looks like a bushing) pn 8653339, some small diameter tubing and an extra set of parts for the flame trap. Any ideas, or am I just worrying?

Thanks

The 8653339 part goes between the oil trap and the block - on the bottom. The original was rubber, the replacement is rubber with an aluminum shell so it looks different. It is important to replace that part since the block passage is a significant source of blockage.

There is much discussion as to whether or not the hose clamps are required with the replacement but I did use the original hose clamps with it when I have replaced mine. I wound up short some clamps for stuff like the Evap lines but I also wound up with extra stuff that I didn't use.
