I was looking at how an oil catch tank would fit in my car today as i have one on the way to stop all the oily crap from the breathers going back into the intake, and i got a bit lost because ive two breathers.
Do i remove and fit the catch tank to the yellow breather or green breather? ![]() Or would i blank off both intake ends and fit the catch tank to both breathers on the engine? Ignore the blue circle, i was missing a bracket but i found it in the boot This post has been edited by Ronan: Feb 1, 2009 - 8:38 AM -------------------- ![]() |

theres this one local ae86 owner who is using an oriental drink can for his oil catch can.. so you can virtually use anything really. for race applications, there are oil catch cans with built in manometers to keep track of oil levels. but the additional benefits gained from having an oil catch can is pretty much negligible. unwanted gases are generally not good for the valve train and pretty much everything else inside so engineers made the pcv valve to continuously release these gases to the intake system to burn off.
