I fitted a catch can about a year ago, I emptied it out a month ago it was about half full, all that was going to go back through the engine, no wonder they carbon up so much, YAK.

Just a thought Lee, put steel wool in the can it stops any oil splashing up into the pipe going back to the inlet on the engine.

catch can is in and doing its job just waiting on some baffles and a bronze filter then ill take some pics of the upgrade

dont forget the pics @4life-extreme

so is this catch can malarkey the next big thing for classics then ? will it be up there alongside "have you changed the fuel filter" and "get rid of the EGR and cooler" ?

For me its about seeing if it reduces the amount of oil that is currently flowing through my intercooler @krutly

smae for me dave with the ammount of oil in the inter cooler is the cooler really doing its job? no not with that coating of oil in it it aint!

swapped the wheels over today from truck 1 and adjusted the tracking

flipped and spaced the top ball ache today took ages to get the camber right still need tweaking

also trimmed the bumper and mounts

I'm sure we had a discussion a while back regarding the catch can issue.

I've had my catch can on for a while now and the amount of oil it catches is not huge but enough to notice, the oil is thick and gooey if it stops carbonisation in the engine and bunging up the inter cooler it's worth it for the money they cost.

i am still waiting for a filter from china for my one

I would have thought you should be ok with the baffle catching the mist @123hotchef Im monitoring mine at the mo

yeh but i want a filter on the outlet just incase some of the scourers break down I dont want that going through the turbo or engine

Lee Ive been reading about the cans again tonite and beware of the scourers breaking down as you say.R/C shops do foam which saves the worrying .

ill use the scourers but only when i get my bronze filter

sounds good Lee. finally sorted washerbottle bit of a hassle, suppose to take a couple of hours , but horn needs moving and make up new feeder pipesand splice wires as original are buried under wheelarch! took about 5 hours in end but worth it.

cool i look forward to seeing it next week

Thanks Lee, looking a bit good now!

got the camber correct at last i hope need to check it on flatter ground

also re did the tracking

washed it and cleanned the inside out nearly as many bottles as kurt in there

I have to clean mine out tomorrow night it will be like giving the truck an enema the amount of shit that will come out lol

re did the camber again today for the 4th time!

something is not quite right steering wheel is wonkey again and there are loud creaks and clonks when turning on fullish lock,

I need to investigate tomorrow


But I cleanned all the shite off the other day after Kirton including the rad
