Oil Supply Hose Routing/Panduit Strap

To prevent disruptions in oil flow and premature oil hose
wear, verify the oil supply hose is free from kinks and/or
sharp bends.
Whenever servicing the oil supply hoses, oil pump, etc.
verify the hose(s) are not coming into the contact with
components that may prematurely wear the hose.
Some models feature a panduit strap to prevent the oil
hose from coming into contact with the front tunnel
bulkhead plate. While not on all models, the strap can be
installed on any vehicle.
IMPORTANT: All 2013 600/800 models and any 2011-
2012 800 model with front tunnel closeoff panels must
have the panduit strap installed to prevent the oil hose
from making contact with the panel.
