Why Install the SPETUNER CCV PCV REROUTE DELETE KIT on Your Duramax Engine?
Improved Engine Performance
The PCV and CCV systems play an important role in engine ventilation, but over time, they can introduce excess oil mist and contaminants into the intake system, which reduces engine efficiency. By installing the SPETUNER CCV PCV REROUTE DELETE KIT, you’ll reduce the intake of oil mist, resulting in cleaner combustion, improved engine efficiency, and ultimately better overall performance.
Cleaner Exhaust
Removing the PCV system and rerouting the CCV enhances exhaust flow, allowing the engine to operate more smoothly. This modification is especially beneficial if you're looking for a cleaner, more efficient engine with minimal oil contamination.
Reduced Oil Consumption
By eliminating oil mist and contaminants entering the intake system, this kit ensures reduced oil consumption and more efficient engine operation, saving you from frequent oil changes and helping extend engine life.
Pre-installation Checklist: Safety and Preparation
Before beginning the installation of the SPETUNER CCV PCV REROUTE DELETE KIT, ensure that you have the following steps covered:
1. Safety Precautions: Always work on a cool vehicle to avoid burns. Wear eye protection to prevent debris from getting into your eyes.
2. Disconnect the Battery: For your safety, disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting any work on the electrical components.
3. Kit Contents Check: Ensure that all components listed in the kit are present, including billet fittings, hoses, caps, and zip ties. Having everything prepared before starting will save time during installation.
Tools Required for Installation
To install the SPETUNER CCV PCV REROUTE DELETE KIT, you’ll need:
· 6mm socket or wrench
· Pliers (to tighten zip ties)
· Scissors or hose cutters (to trim the hoses)
· Zip ties (for securing the hoses)
Step-by-Step Installation of the SPETUNER CCV PCV REROUTE DELETE KIT
Step 1: Remove the Intake Tube and Silencer
Begin by removing the intake tube and silencer from your engine. This will give you the necessary access to the PCV and CCV systems. Make sure to handle the parts carefully to avoid any damage.
Step 2: Disconnect the PCV Crossover Tube
Next, remove the 6mm bolts from each valve cover securing the PCV crossover tube and loosen the hose clamp in the middle. These 6mm bolts will be needed later, so keep them in a safe place.
Step 3: Install the Billet Fittings
Install the billet fittings that come with your kit onto each valve cover. Use the 6mm bolts you removed in Step 2 to secure the fittings in place.
Step 4: Secure the Cap with a Zip Tie
Install the cap onto the opening using a zip tie. Ensure the zip tie is snug, then trim any excess for a clean and secure installation.
Step 5: Route the Hoses to the Passenger Side Wheel Well
To minimize any odors inside the cabin, we recommend routing the hoses through the passenger side wheel well. Measure about 5.5 feet of hose and cut it to the required length.
Step 6: Install the PCV Adapter
Install the PCV adapter onto the valve cover. If your valve cover doesn’t have a plastic box attached, use the included 900 adapter for proper fitment.
Step 7: Attach the Shorter Hose
Connect the shorter hose to the fitting on the passenger side and secure it using the provided hose clamp. Then, use zip ties to secure the two hoses together and run them parallel to one another.
Step 8: Route the Hose Through the Wheel Well
Carefully route the hose through the wheel well on the outboard side of the frame and behind the upper control arm. This will help keep the hoses clear of the exhaust system and prevent damage.
Step 9: Secure the Hoses with Zip Ties
Finally, use two zip ties to secure the hoses to the torsion bar. Leave about 2 inches of hose below the torsion bar for easy access and trimming.
