Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the hose routing before removal and compare the original shape, length, and end style to EMH205. Confirm the vehicle uses the PCV valve to intake or oil separator to intake configuration shown in the fitment data. Inspect adjoining fittings and seals for wear before installation so the replacement hose seats correctly and maintains a secure connection.
