5936 1st Gear June 27, 2011 Share June 27, 2011 Oil catch tank looks like m/cycle fuel filter. Most of these I saw were bigger and made of metal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mona-vie 1st Gear June 28, 2011 Share June 28, 2011 Btw, I would like to remind folks who install oil catch tank to do 2 things. 1. dispose the engine oil collected in the tank properly. 2. Connect the tube from the oil catch tank back to intake manifold. The reason is to reduce pollution. This is because engine oil vapour is hazardous to health (can cause cancer) and its a pollutant. It would be irresponsible to vent engine oil vapour into the atmosphere and let others breath in the fumes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 2, not necessary. Some just seal up the hose connector at intake manifold and vent the engine vapour into the atmosphere. OF course, this prevents engine oil vapour from getting into intake, hence keeping it clean but it also means the gas is vent into atmosphere.

Mona-vie 1st Gear June 28, 2011 Share June 28, 2011 oh, for my car, i need air into the intake to increase torque etc didnt know people will seal up the connector I guess different engines work differently. For me case, I get slightly better FC w/o the hose. This is because the valve cover valve just vents hot blow by gas and engine oil into the combustion chamber. Something that is unwanted. However, perhaps you engine is designed to get additional air from the valve since its positive pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
