Answer to: Can oil catch can damage the turbo? | 17 Relevance | 3 years ago | Mod_Man | Submit Your Question HERE | |
That garage is nuts and never go there. I'll just leave these here.... Also for the record, I have never once seen a case of a catch can damaging a turbo in any way. Ever. And I've seen some things. But not that. | |||||

Hello Scotty. I hope you can answer my question as I know that you have many followers. I watched your video about oil catch can here: My question is, can oil catch can damage the turbo? This topic is beginning to blow out of proportion here in Manila as many people are now against installing OCC because some random garage here is claiming that turbo needs that oil mist coming from the breather (diesel) or PCV. What is your take on this sir? Please have my question answered. You may also create a video about this, it will be a massive hit. Regards, ... | |||||

Factory oil separators are basically oil catch-cans. They started implementing these on GDI engines to reduce the amount of carbon build-up on the intake valves. I don't think it's necessary to install one, and it may be illegal in some states (you would expect them to be legal but our emissions laws are getting way too unreasonable). In my opinion, GDI engines are bound to carbon build-up whether you have a factory oil separator or oil catch-can; they reduce it but do not eliminate it completely. As a GDI owner myself, I always check my intake manifold and ... | |||||

Hi Scotty, love your videos! I wish mechanics in Panama would be as profesional as you. I have a new mazda cx5 sport 2020, 2.0L. Automatic 6 speed. It seems the car already comes with a factory oil separator, should I also install a catch can if I want the intake valves to stay clean? Or am I overdoing it? regards Sean Otoole | |||||

I have a 2023 chevrolet silverado with the 5.3ltr with 16,000 miles. I am thinking of installing the K&N oil catch can to try and keep the top half of the engine clean and healthier. I am reading conflicting reports such as warranty voiding and causing crankcase pressure resulting in rear main seal leaks. I am a bit hesitant and wanted to get your thoughts on this matter, thanks. | |||||

I do advise to disable. But I would not put a catch can on that. Those don't particularly have that problem | |||||
Oil Catch Can on Half Ton Chevy?? | 14 Relevance | 3 months ago | Bass.man | Submit Your Question HERE | |
Scotty, Got a 2020 Silverado 1500 5.3l w/ only 6k miles and auto trans. I'm pretty sure it has direct injection but could be wrong, but if it does I'd wanna add a oil catch can so my valves don't get gunked. I've done some research and I watched your video from a few years ago advocating for catch cans, while other people say they can break some seal and blow a whole engine. What're your thoughts, are catch cans safe to use or can they pose serious risks? Also on a completely separate note, are you familiar with the Range AFM disabler that goes in the OBD2 ... | |||||

I don't think EcoBoost engines have supplemental, ordinary fuel injection that flows over the intake valves yet, so the PCV valve will eventually foul them up and lead to carbon buildup. I would install one. | |||||

Hi Scotty, found your channel about 6 months ago and watch your new episodes every night at work. Recently purchased a 2019 Ford F150 with 2.7 ecoboost has 22k miles. Wanted to get your thoughts on adding an oil catch can to the engine? And anything other helpful tips like changing oil every 5k miles would be very much appreciated. Thanks for the help | |||||

Yes there's a lot of blowby. I can add upper cylinder lubricant that helps but id like to cut down the amount of oil going into the manifold because of it. Will i need to remove the pcv valve or does the hose connect to the pcv valve. | |||||

Oil Catch Can Installation | 14 Relevance | 6 months ago | shadetreecar | Submit Your Question HERE | |
I have an 00 pontiac grand am 3.4l with 338k miles. The intake is getting covered more in oil. Pcv valve and tube were changed with no difference. Obviously its not worth fixing this engine but it gets me to work and home reliably. When installing an oil catch can, do i insert the inlet hose into the pcv valve or am i supposed to remove the valve and insert and seal the hose into the valve cover where the pcv valve sits? Thank you! |
