trying to see if that may be my reason for burning oil. It the oil seperator canister and pcv valve emmissions only, and could I run with out it?

 

no tech love in here?

 

I have a guage on mine. so I empty it when it shows somewhat full?

 

Are you talking about a Catch can?

 

I think he is talking about a catch can...dude all that collects in the can is **** oily residue and if the thing is full, well i dont think it should be. just kleen the can out when you feel the need to

 

Does it honnestly fill up that fast? Maybe I should rip mine apart and see how much is really in there....

i was actually talking about the black box in the rear of the block that then runs to the pcv valve.. I am prettys sure the seperator empties back into the block... is that true? Reason I ask is I think that the pcv is spitting oil into my intake mani... I just replaced the pcv! what gives?

 

well i dont think that is good, the oil breather can shouldnt be filling with anything being that there are vents int the can and it wont hold fluid. dont know maybe you got a bad pcv valve . did you buy it new, i bought one new and it cost about 15 beans, hope i dont run into the same problems.
