In the course of trying to get to the bottom of my Long Term Fuel Trim Additive Air System too Lean error I have just removed the oil separator and attached hose that's behind the engine for inspection.
Although the hose shows signs of rubbing in two places, it and the oil separator box look sound. The hose however didn't have a retaining clip on the manifold end. It just pulled off, easily!
I was prepared for a view of mayonnaise horror but it all looks OK. I can easily blow air though the hose and out of each opening on the separator so it doesn't look like it is blocked with anything.
Is it worth cleaning or should I just refit, with a clip!
Is air meant to just be able to flow through or should there be some kind of valve inside?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Andrew
