o Vacuum and Crankcase
Ventilation Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evi-
dence of heat and/or mechanical dam- age. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and excessiveswelling indicate deterioration. Particu- lar attention should be paid to examin- ing those hose surfaces nearest tohigh heat sources, such as the ex- haust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure that
the hoses do not come in contact withany heat source, sharp edges or mov- ing component which might cause heatdamage or mechanical wear. Inspect all hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make sure they aresecure, and that no leaks are present. Hoses should be replaced immedi- ately if there is any evidence of dete-rioration or damage. F060B01HR-GAT
o Drive Belts
Inspect all drive belts (water pump andalternator) for evidence of cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oiliness, and re- place if necessary. Drive belts shouldbe checked periodically for proper ten- sion and adjusted as necessary. F060E01A-GAT
o Timing Belt
Inspect all parts related with the timing
belt for damage and deformation. Re- place any damaged parts immediately.
