RE: Any of you bros use/made a PCV Catch Can?
With a single vent from the crankcase (single stock pcv), I was accumulating a fair amount of oil in the separator. Enough to have to empty the separator every time I filled up with fuel.
With the second pcv installed I did not have the oil accumulating in the oil separator.
I did still have some oil in the intake, but that is most likely from valve seals. My pcv and separator hose was dry after several fillups.

Thanks Vristang. So that implies that more oil was being left in the engine where it belongs, correct? I think that's gonna be my next mod. It seems like the car would run better without oil in the intake. Thanks.

More oil was definately staying in the oil pan; I was adding oil less often.
Let me know what you do and how it works
