Theory off a oil catch can is and what its used for.

[glanza_dan]

Just some info for some people who dont know what a oil catch can is used for I have done a write up and made a picture on how it works
A Oil Catch Tanks collect the oil, moisture and blow-by gas that causes carbon and sludge build-up in the intake system and engine to keep them clean even under the hardest driving conditions. An oil catch tank is also an excellent engine dress up item that will give your car a racing image.

Thats why i've not got one plumbed in yet - not sure which way to do it.

 

[GTnomez]

well one line is hooked on the pcv valve and then the other is in the inlet

basically interupt the rubber pipe going into the inlet mani

 

[Spoonz]

Also i don't think there is a right way as when i went between the pvc valve and inlet it was causing my car to smoke alot as soon as i put it back it stoped smoking??

Huge discussion on the different ways that can be set up on here and AUS Starlet Club.

Do a search, very good information in the thread

the pcv valve is only open when on idle, the vacume of the engine opens the pcv valve, and the turbo pressure closes it.
