An oil catch can is used in turbo, or high-performance applications where blow-by (leaking past the piston rings) of air and fuel vapor occurs. This creates positive pressure in the crankcase. During engine operation blow-by gases, as well as oil mist from the rotating components of engine, pass through the pcv valve and is routed back in the intake. Over time this forms a gunk (carbon build up). The oil catch can collects this oil and fuel vapor and condenses it, allowing cleaner gases to be passed back into the intake.
Benefits of fitting a oil catch can
- Prevents oil and carbon deposits forming around the intake manifold.
- Stops oil build up in intercooler.
- Catch oil and sludge to lengthen the life of the engine.
- Prolong your rubber boost pipes
- Keeps EGR valve clean
