For those of you STILL on the fence about purchasing and installing a Catch Can, read this:

My 12,500 mile motor already had oil in the TB/IM!!!

So low mileage vehicles are not safe from this either!!!

I don't care which one you think is better, just get one. And Tom (Toml08) from MHP will get you a good price and your color choice :cool:

I installed a catchcan at about 3000 miles and it caught about 3 tablespoons of oil after a 300 mile trip.

Everybody and mechanics especially that look at my engine all point at the catch can and say "that is very important to have"

I get about 3-4 plastic Coke bottle capfuls every 100-150 miles, the harder you work it the more rpms and crankcase pressure = more blowby. I have a spare pvc valve \i'm going to swap in, and replace the 3/8" ID fittings with 1/2" fittings to match the factory tubing. The step down in size may be increasing velocity through the can, allowing oil to still enter the intake. I've had a few blue starts still, might do the trick by slowing down the air flow....
