Abstract

An engine component is configured with a component fluid passage and a receptacle. The component fluid passage extends within the engine component to the receptacle. The receptacle extends through the engine component between a receptacle first end and a receptacle second end. A fluid diverter is configured with a diverter fluid passage and a port. The fluid diverter extends between a diverter first end and a diverter second end. The diverter fluid passage extends partially into the fluid diverter from the diverter first end. The fluid diverter is mated with the receptacle. The diverter first end is disposed at the receptacle first end. The diverter plugs a portion of the receptacle at the diverter second end. The port fluidly couples the component fluid passage to the diverter fluid passage. Fluid is directed through the component fluid passage into the diverter fluid passage to remove debris from the engine component.
