Who's got a dual Oil Catch Can?
Just wondering if anyone out there has an oil catch can for both the PCV valve as well as the bigger breather hose.
And, if so, is there a difference in the amount of oil you collect between the two? |
I don't have a dual can but oil definitely comes out of the front one especially if the PCV is blocked
its not as much |

its not as much But, if the PVC is blocked, not as much comes out of the front one. |
I think a lot less oil comes out of the front in general but if the PCV is blocked then more seems to come out of it.

Mine runs off the rear hose and it does the job very very well for an n/a application. I think dual cans are probably overkill on n/a car.

If so, I know for sure this is not the right thing to do. The front and rear hoses from the valve cover operate under different vacuums except when at WOT. There is a good explanation of this in MOTOIQ. http://www.motoiq.com/magazine_artic...l-control.aspx |

I see where you're going...

If you do the PCV one, you have to be very careful about possible vacuum leaks.
