CCV HOSE
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CCV SYSTEM -
4.0L
Before attempting diagnosis, be sure locations of
fixed orifice fitting and air inlet fitting (Fig. 8) have
not been inadvertently exchanged. The fixed orifice
fitting is light grey in color and is located atrearof
valve cover. The air inlet fitting is black in color and
is located atfrontof valve cover.
(1) Pull fixed orifice fitting (Fig. 8) from valve
cover and leave tube attached.
(2) Start engine and bring to idle speed.
(3) If fitting is not plugged, a hissing noise will be
heard as air passes through fitting orifice. Also, a
strong vacuum should be felt with a finger placed at
fitting inlet.
(4) If vacuum is not present, remove fitting orifice
fitting from tube. Start engine. If vacuum can now be
felt, replace fixed orifice fitting. Do not attempt to
clean plastic fitting.
(5) If vacuum is still not felt at hose, check line/
hose for kinks or for obstruction. If necessary, clean
out intake manifold fitting at intake manifold. Do
this by turning a 1/4 inch drill (by hand) through the
fitting to dislodge any solid particles. Blow out thefitting with shop air. If necessary, use a smaller drill
to avoid removing any metal from the fitting.
(6) Return fixed orifice fitting to valve cover and
leave tube attached.
(7) Disconnect air inlet fitting and its attached
hose at front of valve cover (Fig. 8). Start engine and
bring to idle speed. Hold a piece of stiff paper (such
as a parts tag) loosely over the rubber grommet
(opening) of the disconnected air inlet fitting.
(8) The paper should be drawn against the rubber
grommet with noticeable force. This will be after
allowing approximately one minute for crankcase
pressure to reduce.
(9) If vacuum is not present, check breather hoses/
tubes/lines for obstructions or restrictions.
(10) After testing, reconnect all system hoses/
tubes/lines.
REMOVAL - FIXED ORIFICE FITTING
When installing fixed orifice fitting, be sure loca-
tions of fixed orifice fitting and air inlet fitting (Fig.
9) have not been inadvertently exchanged. The fixed
orifice fitting is light grey in color and is located at
rearof valve cover. The air inlet fitting is black in
color and is located atfrontof valve cover.
(1) Pull fixed orifice fitting (Fig. 9) from valve
cover grommet.
(2) Separate fitting from CCV breather tube.

²No engine stall during test.
NOTE: IF BATTERY VOLTAGE DROPS BELOW 10
VOLTS FOR MORE THAN 5 SECONDS DURING
ENGINE CRANKING, THE EVAP LEAK DETECTION
TEST WILL NOT RUN.
NOTE: THE FOLLOWING VALUES ARE APPROXI-
MATE AND VEHICLE SPECIFIC. USE THE VALUES
SEEN IN PRE TEST/MONITOR TEST SCREEN ON
THE DRB IIIT. SEE TSB 25-02-98 FOR MORE
DETAIL.
A DTC will not be set if a one-trip fault is set or if
the MIL is illuminated for any of the following:
²Purge Solenoid Electrical Fault
²All TPS Faults
²All Engine Controller Self Test Faults
²LDP Pressure Switch Fault
²All Cam and/or Crank Sensor Fault
²EGR Solenoid Electrical Fault
²All MAP Sensor Faults
²All Injector Faults
²Ambient/Battery Temperature Sensor Electrical
Faults²Baro Out of Range
²Vehicle Speed Faults
²All Coolant Sensor Faults
²LDP Solenoid Circuit
NOTE: IF BATTERY TEMPERATURE IS NOT WITHIN
RANGE, OR IF THE ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERA-
TURE IS NOT WITHIN A SPECIFIED RANGE OF THE
BATTERY TEMPERATURE, THE PCM WILL NOT
RUN TESTS FOR DTC P1494, P1486, P0442, P0455
AND P0441. THESE TEMPERATURE CALIBRATIONS
MAY BE DIFFERENT BETWEEN MODELS.
SECTION 1 - P1495 Leak Detection Pump
Solenoid Circuit-When the ignition key is turned
to9ON9, the LDP diaphragm should be in the down
position and the LDP reed switch should be closed. If
the EVAP system has residual pressure, the LDP dia-
phragm may be up. This could result in the LDP reed
switch being open when the key is turned to9ON9
and a P1494 fault could be set because the PCM is
expecting the reed switch to be closed.
After the key is turned9ON9, the PCM immedi-
ately tests the LDP solenoid circuit for electrical
faults. If a fault is detected, DTC P1495 will set, the

(8)Do not attempt to clean the old PCV valve.
(9) Return PCV valve back to oil filler tube by
placing valve locating tabs (Fig. 21) into cam lock.
Press PCV valve in and rotate valve upward. A slight
click will be felt when tabs have engaged cam lock.
Valve should be pointed towards rear of vehicle.
(10) Connect PCV line/hose and connecting rubber
hose to PCV valve.
(11) Disconnect rubber hose from fresh air fitting
at left side of air cleaner resonator box (Fig. 22).
Start engine and bring to idle speed. Hold a piece of
stiff paper (such as a parts tag) loosely over the
opening of the disconnected rubber hose.
(12) The paper should be drawn against the hose
opening with noticeable force. This will be after
allowing approximately one minute for crankcase
pressure to reduce.
(13) If vacuum is not present, disconnect each PCV
system hose at top of each breather (Fig. 22). Check
for obstructions or restrictions.(14) If vacuum is still not present, remove each
PCV system breather (Fig. 22) from each cylinder
head. Check for obstructions or restrictions. If
plugged, replace breather. Tighten breather to 12
N´m (106 in. lbs.) torque. Do not attempt to clean
breather
(15) If vacuum is still not present, disconnect each
PCV system hose at each fitting and check for
obstructions or restrictions.
