The full load breather consists of an oil separator, a check valve and a flexible hose. The oil separator and the check valve are installed in the top of the left camshaft cover. The flexible hose connects the left camshaft cover to the clean air duct of the intake air distribution and filtering system.
The oil separator is installed in a channel in the top of the camshaft cover. A baffle plate, which incorporates a gas intake and an oil drain, is installed over the channel. The check valve is installed in the gas outlet from the channel. The check valve controls the fresh air flow.
The full load breather functions in a similar way to the part load breather except that the vapor passes into the clean air duct of the intake air distribution and filtering system. The oil returns to the engine.
