Oil catch can Follow up - Ridgeline/Passport/Pilot
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2021
- Its been 1221 miles since I installed the Evil Energy Oil catch can on my Honda Ridgeline 2018 RTLE with 48,000 miles. After seeing how much was accumulated in the first 1200 miles I have decided to release the results as they were much more significant than I expected them to be.
The Giveaway has ended. Thank you all for participating.
(Installing this may or may not void warranty so if you are unsure please check with your local honda dealer. Do at your own risk.)

Love the insight you give the Ridgeline community! Your videos are great. I’ll definitely be needing a catch can on my ‘21. Thanks for all you do.
Thank you for explaining what it is and does in simple plain terms! 2020 sport here and definitely something now I need to install. Keep up the good work with your videos 👏🏼
Thanks for posting a follow-up video on this catch can so quickly. I'm definitely sold on wanting one now. Keep the great content coming, Yuriy!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences to Ridgeline G2 community. Very useful and makes ownership more fun and enjoyable.
This is a follow up to your follow up. 2020 RTL-E owner, purchased new. Having watched your catch can install and researching other such installs and results. I purchased the same unit and installed soon after the 3 year warranty. Also installed a VCM muzzler. With 21k miles on it. I drove 1,000 miles then checked the can’s contents. It contained virtually the exact amount yours did! Thanks for inspiration to install the catch can. I like to keep vehicles 10 or so years or up to around 100,000 miles. This should help ensure my RL makes it there, and the next guy can install the new timing belt, etc. lol.
That is a lot of oil to catch. I have a 19 RTL-T and you have my attention. By the way the 2 vids on the trunk were priceless. Found and fixed. Thank you.
Love all the tips! I’ve been wanting a ridge line and have watched a ton of your videos on it. Pretty sure it’s all the truck I’d need
I have a 2017 BE and you peaked my interest on this catch can. I'm the kinda guy that keeps my vehicles for a long time so, thanks for making this result video. 👍
Glad I could help!
Incredible. Thanks for the video! Respect for always keeping the community informed!!
I recently got a Ridgeline and immediately start following you. Really good information
Wow I didn’t expect that! As a Ridgeline owner I appreciate your videos
Thanks for the video and explanation of how the catch can works. I had never heard of it before this video.
I just put a deposit on a '22 Ridgeline and I will definitely be putting one on that truck. Keep up the great content.
WoW, I have a ‘21 BE and I’ll be adding this to my “to do list”! Thank you!
Wow-did not expect to see that much oil! I will consider installing one of these.
Sounds like an awesome thing to have in our trucks! Thanks for all the content!
All your videos are very informative and right to the point.
Always informative, keep up the good work. You’re my go to when or if I have issues with my Ridgeline and want to fix it myself!
Right on. Hope to continue building the library of useful information for everyone. Not everyone is tech savvy but with the right information it can build confidence to attempt it ones self.
Great insight into Ridgelines issues. Thanks Yuri!
Hugely useful information- Thank you Yuriy!
Started following you a few weeks back and really enjoy your videos. 2018 BE owner.
I installed one just like yours on my '17 RTL E about a year age, with similar oil catch.
Wow I put this in the Ridgeline Owners Club forum alway great information Yuriy!
Just emptied mine. 40 grams or just under 3 table spoons. Basically 2 Tbs of water vapor and 1 Tbs of the milky oil / fuel mix. +/- 2400 miles (winter/cold temperature) driven and a lot of remote starts. Identical catch can to Yuri's. Excellent addition to the Ridgeline and to any direct injection engine.
I just bought a 2024 Honda Ridgeline and it seems like a good idea to install one thanks for the wisdom
Awesome !! Glad to see you can enjoy giving away items to everyone. Hope to see more dyno
Very informative and the proof of benefit is exactly what you’ve shown. Thank you Yuriy.
Congratulations Norman! You have won the giveaway! Please send me an email titled Giveaway so I can send you your prize. You can find my email in "About" on my channel. Look forward to hearing from you and thank you so much for participating!
@@YuriyMotso couldn’t find your email in about
@@YuriyMotso Sorry I looked all over for your email and cannot find it, Norm.
@@YuriyMotso I’m looking forward to receiving the oil catch and installing on my RTL-E. Thanks again for the giveaway Yuiry!
Valuable info. I appreciate the time and effort you put into this video.
Thank you.
I own a 2021 sport with the HPD package. This is definitely something I would consider installing. Thanks for the insight.
Thank you again for the follow up video
Thanks for the content. I’ll have to look into install one on my RL
I had never heard of this particular item but it seems I must’ve missed a video somewhere on the installation. Fascinating and sounds like a good thing to have to avoid other issues.
No problem. Installation video is located in my channel and any preventative maintenance you can do to increase your vehicles life and reliability is worth it in my book. This is pennies compared to how expensive repair costs are.
Great video….will need to get one!!
Wow. Didn't see that coming. Need one for my 2019 B.E. Thanks for your video's.
Thank you for the Ridgeline content
That is great information and thank you for sharing your tips.
Great info. I know nothing about this topic, thanks for the education.
Thanks for the vid!
Definitely need this now
Considering this for my Pilot with the same engine...everything I cando to keep it on the road as long as possible!
Definitely been thinking about one of these
I might get this for my odyssey! Great video!
Hey, even them minivans need to get from point a to b quick, fast and in a hurry. Love the odyssey. Torn between odyssey and Sienna when I decide to buy my wife her next vehicle.
🤘🏼👍🏼 Thanks for this awesome video! This is a must.
Interesting video. Thanks.
I have a pilot and the best thing I ever did was disable the vcm with the svcm disabler the car drives incredible. Better then it did new
Thank you for the great information.
Great informative video!
I NEED THAT IN MY ACURA MDX.. WELL DONE BUDDY .. THATS A REALLY GOOD IDEA…👍👍👍🙏🙏
Great stuff here. Was looking for some tinkering for the truck, this might do it!
For the price it's not going to hurt the bank, will increase efficiency and "should" not void warranty.
Nice vid. Have a 21 passport so the same engine here. Guess I may need one of these!
Damn, over time it definitely adds up
Ordering one now!
Very informative!
Nice catch.
It would have been interesting to establish the density of the fluid and compare it to the density of the oil in the crankcase and to water. My point being that much of what was captured could be water and soot that is a normal byproduct during warm up and not as likely to stick to the back of valves. Just a thought.
Good find!!!
Great video so much content
Thank you!
Thanks for the video.
Good video. Please produce a video of your Oil Catch Csn install on the Ridgeline…components, install location, hose routing, brackets, etc.
Got you covered. 👍🏻

Did not know about a catch can thanks
Working through a list of upgrades including vcm and idle disables among other visual things
Cool. My 2019 needs this mod
Much depends on usage. Short trips will fill it faster than long trips
Wow good job bro nice one
Thanks. Good vid
That’s a surprising amount of oil!
Thanks for the info!! Hope I win. Either way I am getting this done!!
I have a 2021 white BE and this would be awesome to have!!!!
I got a 17 Ridgeline RTS AWD about to hit 100k miles. Might need this item for it.
Nice video...has anyone adding better lights to the bed? Or, changed out the bulbs for leds?
BTW I installed a vcm muzzler on my BE and it completely stopped the vibration/noise that happens every time the vcm kicks in. However it did slightly hurt my mpg. Worth it though to stop the wear it must place on an engine.
I might add one to my ridgeline. If you want to go by pure weight, could weight the actual can before you install it.
Honestly not surprised by this outcome. It seems like every engine now that uses direct injection has this issue.
It will be interesting to see if the amount increases over time with milage on the engine.
I would hate to see what the wife's Subaru would look like if I installed one.
With your permission, I'd like to share some of your videos with my Dealer. They sell more Ridgelines than anyone else within a 300 mile radius. You have some good info that I'm sure their technicians could utilize for customer benefit.
That is fine with me.
It has nothing to do with direct ejection. No matter what fuel delivery system, weather it is DI, PI, TBI, or carburetor, oil will always find its way to the intake.
@@squidusn71 Correct, all PCV systems will have some degree of crankcase oil, in aerosol form, fed back onto the intake. However, on any system which introduces fuel before the valves detergents in the fuel prevent carbon buildup on the back side of the valves. These really only have long term value on DI engines which don’t take advantage of the fuel detergent effect. Some manufacturers have introduced fuel misters on the intake manifold side to combat the issue so it would be interesting to confirm with Honda engineering what mitigation they have deployed to prevent carbon buildup on the back side of the valves.
I’ve seen other catch can videos for different vehicles that accumulated lots of water. Have you experienced any water buildup during the winter months? I was curious because I just installed the evil energy version without the optional filter on top and the instructions advise to revert back to factory setup during freezing temperatures because moisture could freeze in the filter portion of the catch can and create blockage to the pcv system.
I have a winter update video that does contain more water. Haven’t taken mine off in the winter but I would say do it if your vehicle does produce lots of watery build up after checking
I have a catch can on my 20 RTL-E and I am getting about the same results as you are.
I am thinking about getting one.
Wow, never heard about this, so thank you for that. How hard was it to install?
Very simple. I have the installation video with step by step instructions available on my channel. 👍🏻
Entered to win! Thank you for the video.
I get roughly about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of oil, water, fuel and whatever nonsense per oil change in the summer.... Winter. Check it more often. Mine filled and froze due to water/moisture/condensation. (Not an evil energy can) the one I'm going to install next is.
oil catch can ftw!
Wow, thank you for video. What was the Odometer when you was filming? I bought brand new Odyssey with V6, and thinking to install the catch pan. Do engines with low miles under 40K have a this amount blow by also?
You will most likely share similar results. At the time of filming I had roughly 50-55k I think.
Thanks
Oil catch something I didn't think about
Just so you know all engine have blowby same applies with diesel but there are two types of blow-by traditional blow by when it gets past the rings creating more pressure and then there's the rotating assembly as the piston moved up and down it moved the air around which is not really blow-by it just positive and negative crank pressure all happening at the same time.
Hello from Canada :)
What time of year and Temps? I found it's pretty minimal during summer times. But in winter at below freezing it catches a lot more.
I have a 2019 Ridgeline Sport and I’m definitely gonna need one of these!!
With this catch can, is there any risk to blow a gasket or maybe void warranty on the engine? is it safe to install a catch can? thanks for your videos sir.
There should be no risk to your vehicle. For the oil catch can to void warranty the auto company would have to prove that the oil catch can caused the issue. It’s very unlikely that anything will ever be caused by a catch can as it’s essentially an additional filter. There is a law which I forget it’s name that protects people from these sort of discrepancies.
It’s recommended that it be either insulated during cold months or you can reroute it back for a few months until it warms up again if you live in freezing cold climates. If you park in garage you might be fine not needing to do this. However hundreds of thousands of people use oil catch cans every year who don’t take precautions like that and are fine.
However, like all things do at your own risk. You can research more information online about oil catch cans but it’s a very popular and common upgrade that many people use.
When will you be doing the SVCM? There is a lot of debate on the Pilot forums that the SVCM will make your engine last longer also.
I plan on doing it. No current time frame however. Would be difficult to prove it will increase the life expectancy or reliability of the engine. Too many variables for this to be the sole contributor.
How is it during the winter? Any frozen water condensation? still using it with good luck? Do you find you need to add more oil between oil changes?
No frozen condensation that would affect the vehicle. Remember that it’s at the bottom. So even if it’s frozen, you still have open hose for the air to circulate. The Ridgeline, Atleast mine, has always eaten oil between oil changes so I cannot confirm an improvement or not
My 2grfe Toyota V6 catches a lot too
I’ve got 70k on my 16 Pilot, haven’t had any issues with the intake valves but am going to install this anyways, need to make a better mounting bracket though
I agree. The generic one it came with is pretty lame but it does the job if modified correctly. It’s universal so can’t fault them much. Atleast something is supplied.
I also have a 21 BE and have been wondering about doing this mod
Direct injection gets you power & efficiency but at a cost
I have a 2020 RTE, had no idea this was an issue
Should i vent my catch can? You know the breather on top of the catch can... whould i install it?
Youy choice in oil can affect the amount of actual oil you get. Noack rating matters. (Oils vapor/boiling point)
Isn't this more prevelant with the new 2020+ "Earth Dreams" engines that now do not have the VTM button?
Just bought 2024 black edition
New subscriber here... I put a deposit down last week on a 2022 Canadian Black Edition - Delivery is in September! Just searching YT on ideas for my new ride! Keep the videos coming! 👍 Perhaps LED lighting? 🤔 😀.
Funny you should say that. I bought LED lights for the truck months ago and I haven’t gotten around to installing it. Easy to install but hard to install when you need to make a video too. 🤣
