Yes, you can clean them. I don't know whether a diesel has one of these. But, on the 5.4L engine, it is VERY difficult to get it out, so if I was going to have pay labor to get it out and cleaned, I figured it was better to replace it. It was original and the vehicle has 140,000 miles on it. Donald H. Snook -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
