PCV Oil Catch Can, see what your engine is burning!

[ZL1power69]

shorter the hose length the better, system is more effective that way. where did you mount the catch can( cant really see it in the pics)? i hung the can off the wiring harness near the wiper motor. i ran the line up under the master cylinder, over the brake booster, to the can, then from the can right to the manifold. my pics are in post 113 or somewhere close to that. i may even change to a hose going straight up from the pcv to the can. you really don't need the hose clamps on there. i've had this installed since september when i got my truck and have not had any problems.

im running right from pvc to the can mounted under the brake booster, on that brake line distributor thing. than from there it wraps around the ABS system right in to the manifold. i was trying to see if there was a smoother was to run everything w/o any aggresive kinks but i did feel confertable in some of the positon. Oh an by the way i have accumlated about a 1/4 inch of oil and what not in the bottom of mine already

[ZL1power69]

yea when you first install it you will accumulate alot of stuff but from then on it fills very gradually until you decide to empty it. mine has never really gotten over half full. i might shorten up the hose from the pcv to the can and see if that make the system more effective.

o ok kool that what i was thinking, yeah mine is only about foot and a half tops from the pvc to the can. it goes stright to the can having some slack for engine movement

i guess the set up just looks longer in the pics than it really is.

Hey now, I had internet ISP problems and it was taking forever for me to access this topic so i had to wait till it was fixed, which just happened 10 minutes ago.

I just haven't been having any problems with the car now so I haven't been coming to this forum much. The 300C forum here is dead compared to the Blazer/s-series.

I have to admit, and this is not a cheap shot to you guys, but I don't miss the truck at all. I don't have any problems anymore and if a small thing come up here and there, it is covered under my warranty.

Don't hate me for likeing my car, my god it is fast.

the flow is from the pcv to the catch can, then to the intake manifold.

In my humble opinion, (not that anyone asked for it) In the spirit of purity, I think you should change your picture.

You can keep the name (so we know who you are) but post the new ride. Keeping the same picture is like keeping the Prom picture of the girl you almost married in hopes that some day she'll return.

going on a solid week and wow



this thing does work, Wether it is good or bad, whitch it seems like people will fight on this topic for ever, but im happy

[ZL1power69]

im not surprized. remember to empty it before the level gets to the filter. after couple weeks it will fill alot slower, unless you have a ton of crap in that engine . its definately worth the $30 for this mod, it does work.

[Eslhockey92g]

Id hope theres not alot of crap in it, its a new jasper motor with about 7000 miles on it. I has not even tasted synthetic oil yet, but yea i check my fuild every weekend, so ill keep my eye on it. I wont let it get closer the the filter at all but out of curiosity what would happen?
