Callout	Component Name
1	Positive Crankcase Ventilation Tube with Positive Crankcase Ventilation Valve - Foul Air NOTE: These components have tamper-proof connections and cannot be disassembled. Remove this component only if inspection indicates replacement is necessary. Procedure Inspect all positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) components prior to removal. Do not remove the PCV components unless a diagnostic or inspection procedure indicates replacement is necessary. Complete all camshaft cover inspections prior to inspecting or removing PCV components. If inspection indicates the camshaft cover requires replacement, all PCV components will be replaced with the cover. Remove the PCV valve from the cover by twisting and breaking the connection. Retrieve any particles that fall onto the baffle in the cover. Discard the valve and particles.
2	Positive Crankcase Ventilation Valve Bolt[2x] NOTE: Bolts are tamper-proof. Remove the bolts only if inspection of the PCV tube or valves indicates replacement is necessary.
