2. When changing oil, keep unit and truck level so all the oil can flow from the oil pan.
N N o o t t e e : : It is important to get as much of the oil out as possible because most of the dirt particles are contained in the
last few quarts of oil that drain out of the pan.

Crankcase Breather System
The crankcase breather system ducts crankcase gases formed in the crankcase directly to the air intake. Harmful vapors
that would otherwise collect in the crankcase and contaminate the oil, or escape to the outside, are drawn back into the
engine and burned.
The crankcase breather is located in the cylinder head cover, which is a combination of valve cover and intake manifold.
A restrictor in the cylinder head cover limits the flow of gases from the crankcase to the intake and keeps the crankcase
pressure from getting too low.
