Hi i've had my catch can for 6 months. Its still looks like new
the lines are still clear. and no liquid in the tube measurer.
I havn't taken it out to check but looking at it its not catching any oil.

Yes all the lines are connected. It is a CUSCO round cylinder type.

 

how do you have it routed?

 

One end from PCV valve to catch can the other from catch can to intake manifold.

 

check your pcv, make sure its still working

 

May seem like a stupid question. How?
I know there is a rattle from when i put it back in.

 

well then i really dont know what to tell u..i guess just get a new pcv valve.. do you have a high idle at all?

i have a greddy catch man and it's routed the same way yours is and it caught alot of gases and oil and what not..soo much i could dump it out..it was crazy , almost a 1/2 pint..

another thing to try would be to spray some carb cleaner in the pcv valve..that can clean them out well..

 

Simply because it rattles does not mean it is working. Just buy a new one and be done with it. They are like three bucks.

 

I went a change the PCV valve and what da ya know
the old one doesn't rattle. Hopefully this will fix the problem.
My PCV valve was $10! ouch...

 

You have it routed right, must be a blockage somewhere, definately replace the PCV if it's only $3.
Try $68 for a PCV here in NZ

 

what are catch cans for? i know the catch oil but why do u need one? and how much are they?
