    In todays video i will show the real test how Every Oil catch can should be tested like this to see if it can separate lipid from the air
    i will be using compressed air and water to spray from the inlet of the oil catch can and from the outlet only air should come out, that's the purpose of the oil catch can and that's How oil catch can works

    This test should be done with oil vapors not liquid. So it should look smoke coming into the catch can and if filtered properly, should have little to no smoke passing through the outlet.

      Water is less viscous than oil, if water is held by the can, so will oil. Water is also an issue with catch cans in winter, this shows water condensation is held by the can.
      Hard to do the test with oil vapors @ 200F!

    Hey Ali, good video as always. But this generic type can increases crankcase pressure x4 and restricts blow by gas airflow. You"ll have oil leaks and expensive problems in the engine if you continue to use it. So i don't recommend this type. You should buy better oil cather. Provent 200 is much better. Stay safe.

      It seems to suck air into the crankcase instead of crankcase blowing out. I'm not using pcv valve but the second outlet I tested it by bending the hose and it went quiet

    What most is concern is oil and carbon buildup in the intake port and intake valves. Still good to see the mishimoto clone filter out the compressed water vapor.

    using a bronze filter like that can raise crank case pressures on boosted engines especially which can blow oil out of the engine seals. when the bronze filter element gets saturated in oil it raises crank case pressures. glad you didnt buy a element filter type catch can as those will def cause havoc quickly.

    Very nice video..been trying to find a video like this for a while. A video where it shows before and after. Thats great to know it works so good. ive had one on my 2020 ford ranger since 4k miles. Im at 32k now. Im very curious to see how everything looks on the inside of my Ranger compared to videos ive seen on the Internet of direct injected engines with turbos.

    I'd be curious how much it increases the crankcase pressure.

    • @GCS88
      @GCS88 Рік тому +1

      depends how You hook it up and what kind of can, I've noticed alot of people with turbo cars installing one and only uses the turbo intake pipe as vacuum source I'm certain that increases crankcase pressure quite a bit on idle, but not drastic... I on the other hand went with OEM plumbing when installed mine, 2 exit ports one goes to the turbo intake pipe for on boost and the other to the intake mani for off boost, My CC pressure has a pretty good vacuum because of it, these kind of cans with sintered filter HAS to be connected to the intake mani as well to avoid pressure build up as the filter is quite restrictive

      You can create a pcv system using a catchcan that vents to atmosphere under boost with multiple check valves, spring loaded. Boost closes the check valve redirecting the crankcase pressure towards the other check valve that leads to the filter. Obviously the check valve that isn’t closed by boost will have less resistance so the crankcase pressure gets vented that way, this system helps keep the vacuum under idle.

    Hi man!
    What about the Crankcase pressure that lock this type of catch can with bronze filter.
    I read a lot about this type of catch can and people are complaining because this catch can can;t release the pressure of the crankcase like before and blow the VCG leading to oil leaks .
    I had on my BMW N52 engine like one day and after I read this I removed it.
    My purpose is to clean my intake and cylinder head from moisture and carbon deposit but I don't want to create more crankcase pressure.
    I want to hear you opion
    THX!

    The water spraying in and sitting was cold but its the heat inside catch-can creates the water from condensation, also the sitting water evaporates from heat build up inside and cause water into atmosphere inside adding to build up from condensation that's where water comes from not the crankcase pressure going in. Issue is condensation with catchcans.

Tengo un impala 2019 V6 motor es LFX y cuando le instale el occ me empezo a silbar y cuando le quitaba la varilla de aceite se le quitaba el sonido al final se lo quite todo por miedo que se me rompa el motor
