Hello all,

I installed my JLT catch can today. It was not difficult by any means, but I think I might be a little slow or something. How the heck does one get the engine cover off without removing the strut tower brace? I fiddled around with it for 10 minutes, and I didn't want to break anything! I was able to pop up the front and sneak the hose onto the intake port, but I had to do it mostly by feel. So I have two questions.

1.) Is there a way to remove the engine cover without removing the strut tower brace?

2.) Is the catch can supposed to sit level? After mine is connected, it sort of tilts back a bit, but there is no way to adjust it. Thanks.

 

I don't think you can remove the cover without taking off the strut tower brace. I had to do the same as you did and just go by feel.

My catch can doesn't sit perfectly level either but it's not tilted enough to where I would worry about it's effectiveness. Try and twist it a little and you might be able to get it close.

 

Driving around and getting the hoses hot will help with the way it sets a bit.

 

i had to loosen my strut tower brace to get the cover off

 

Thanks guys. And I don't know why I called it a sway bar.

 

Not a big deal. I am sure we all knew what you were talking about.
