In case anyone was still in denial, here's a shot of what came out of my Elite catch can after 3000 miles: Keep in mind this is a Ziploc brand sandwich bag, I would guess there to be at least a quarter cup of oil in there: Shot of my Elite can installed:
We didnt need proof that it works, but that sure is good that it removed that, yet scary that there is that much oil passing through.
I empty mine about every other time I fill up so it's only on the order of a teaspoon or so. I'm saving it though so I can get a decent quantity over a decent number of miles. So far I've got about 20 ml in 1000 miles. A lot less than what you got there but your motor is a good ways from stock right?
Yea I get a ton of it in mine. I get enough passing throught that I need to add some oil every couple weeks or so.
It's nice to know that you speak for everyone. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, "The People's Voice, Leadfootluke". :towel:
Stock longblock N/A, just bolt-ons and a tune. I usually empty every 1k miles or so but thought I'd go a full change before checking for shits and giggles. I was very surprised at the results. :blink:
And I meant that to be kinda an expression for others. Its supposed to do that, Im just glad yours caught much, it means its doing its job.
I have it here, but I asked Luke to remove or edit his post. I prefer to let people voluntarily correct such things before I step in and do it myself. That way I'm not the evil moderator bitch...well all of the time.
I would editted have if it wasnt quoted. I only meant to compliment the effectiveness of the can, but he responded hostile like. And we know it was a harmless comment, but since he cannot respond, I felt bad, and deleted.
Was cool from the start. I just question the selective moderation in some of the threads the last few days. :censored:
This wasn't selective moderation, the comment was unnecessary and inflammatory. He deleted it himself. I only moderate this forum (SRT8 LX) and can't speak for the other moderation.
And back to the catch can discussion... I personally haven't invested in one, as I haven't modded my engine at all and only have bolt-ons. It is good to know that they do work though.
Call Heidi. Tell her I sent you and I will pay for it. Mine is in (Finally). I will be checking it just before our venture to the Spring Festival.
Since the mag is my dads, I need to convince him to get one. Even stock engines are collecting oil. I think the pics are pretty convincing.
can i do the same thing? "yeah hey heidi.....no its cool.....ron just said put it on his tab.....yeah the fusebox cover too.......sweet, talk to you later." im at 45k and still no catch can, i can only imagine how nasty mine is looking!
