People are not spending thousands of dollars on maintenance because they don’t have a catch can. The number of cars that have had an aftermarket catch can installed on them is so small that it is statistically insignificant.

@@ramecodiesel8271 I went into this thinking I should get a catch can and came away thinking it's a bad design. What happens when someone buys the vehicle without knowing it's installed or needs maintenance? Eventually it's going to overflow and start puking crankcase oil into the intake manifold or clogging up the PCV. Use a centrifugal collector like you find on a Dyson instead of that screen, let the oil drip from there into small trap. At the bottom of the trap have a diaphragm that is operated by either a bimetallic (thermostat) strip or possibly intake manifold vacuum/pressure. When the engine is hot/running the diaphragm is closed. When the engine is cold, the diaphragm relaxes and lets the collected oil drip back down into the crankcase via the dip tube. Should be close to zero maintenance.

There are 'many' different catch-can's on the market, and I was hoping that a few would have been tested, and which would have been the most efficient, at catching the most 'gunk'! Nonetheless, this is a mod I will need to do to my 3.5L Ecoboost, yet now that the truck is at 125K miles, my intercooler tubes I'm sure have a fair bit of oil in them after seeing this video! This looks to be the most simple design I've seen, as some are much more robust systems, with a larger catch-can, as well as some even with vacuum to help suck the oil, so none get's by at all. Thanks for the video, as it gets those of us that haven't had this done, to get our butts busy, and think about which to purchase!

I run the same JLT 3.0 on my 3.5 Ecoboost Transit 250 service vehicles. A lot of stop and start plus cold climate. We empty our catch can with every tank of fuel. I get around that much fluid every 3-400 miles (more in winter than summer). It is certainly not full and I am sure we could run through several tanks of fuel with out overfilling. Also .. you can install small ball valve off the bottom of the catch can if you drill and tap it. Then you don't have to un screw a hot can at the gas station. Great Episode!

Thanks for the great info as always! Just curious but does the mounting location make much difference... I’ve heard you need to have the can as low and the hoses as short as possible 🤷🏻‍♂️ Thanks!

I put one on mine and it’s nuts how much crap come out. It’s a really good item to get.

For Turbo apps the 3 line can is better as there is no vacuum under boost to keep it flowing but the turbos will pull a vacuum in the air feed ducts when spooled to maintain a constant draw or flow in the catch can. I run an RX can in my 2014 F150 3.5 Ecoboost.

When tearing down my 4.3L Vortec for a rebuild in '04, I noticed quite a bit of gunky oil residue on the inside of the intake manifold and throttle body. After a bit of internet searching, I found out about catch cans and installed one on the new engine and what a difference. I have zero oily build-up in my intake manifold or throttle body after more than 50K miles and I saw about a mile or two MPG increase. Wouldn't drive a modern car w/o one, as they are cheap insurance for your engines longevity, by extracting all of the oil, fuel & water vapors that acidify (and ruin) your motor oil, hence the main reason for needing to change your oil. Less frequent oil changes means money in the bank. That's a win, win in my book.

I installed a catch can on my 2020 F150 5.0 when the truck had barely a few hundred miles on it. I just drained it today at about 5,100 miles. These things definitely work. I wouldn't consider the amount of oil I drained out of it excessive, but I'm definitely glad it didn't make its way into the intake manifold. I'm using the one from Ford Performance with a fabricated bracket and tubing setup, but I'm sure most of the products on the market would do the job. Definitely a good investment as I plan on owning my truck for quite a while, and definitely want to keep it well maintained.

Have one on mine. Collects lots of moisture too.

I had one mounted in front of the radiator on my old truck. A LOT of moisture from condensation since it's colder out front. I'm thinking the JLT might be better because it stays warm with the engine. Less moisture that really doesn't hurt anything.

If you install that in a location that's heated by engine bay air, the moisture or un-burned fuel will evaporate and get sucked into the intake.

I've been wanting to put one on my car.

I was looking for catch cans for my 16 5.0 F150. I know what their function is but your explanation is very accurate. Good education for the uninformed

I have a 2020 F150 with the 2.7L . They claim that with the added port injection that you "should" be fine . But I was finally able to get one , "back ordered" and installed it when I had around 4,000 miles on the truck . To me it seemed like money well spent to keep my intake system clean as possible and was a super easy install and it looks good !

Hey Justin, great explanation. I knew how they worked but sometimes hard to put into words, Good job. Any chance you may know if there is a setup for a 2017 Nissan Titan 5.6l? So far all I can find is universal fit. If not is there a brand you would recommend? Scott

I put one of these on a 04 6i jeep grand Cherokee and noticed more oil in the can after climbing steep hills. I think the angle pooled more oil in the rear of the engine were the PCV valve is and got vacuumed.

Awesome video. Thanks!

Great video!! I have a 2019 3.5L F150. My question concerns freezing issues at very low temps, many owners have reported engine failure. Is this a valid concern and how low do the temps have to be to cause the problem. I'm in NJ.

My truck is a 2013 Ecoboost .... my separator catches more water vapor with the oil, a lot more.

What's the purpose sorry he shows in the video, is this to help the intercooler for the turbos?

Was going to get the Ford performance oil separator, but apparently they don’t make it for my 2018 Ford F150 5.0. Looks like I may have to go with this particular JLT model.

Dude I got this exact catch can and man it’s amazing to me how much sludge is in it every time. I’m a bit worried the last time I checked it out at the bottom of the van was a bit milky looking but the oil was still oil color.

Condensation? 🥪

With dual injectors or port injectors these may or may not be needed but gear heads know what they want and like. My 2018 5.0 has a separator made and sold by Ford Performance for a Mustang. (Off road application only) I have a You Tube showing its installation ( listed under James Tone). There is oil in it every time I check. 18k miles and was put on the first week. My 2015 Honda Civic has a Moroso installed. They are illegal since you are altering an emissions controlled device. I remove mine to have a he dealer servicing, takes about 5 minutes tops. I believe every engine but especially Supercharged need one of these devices

@Havok135

They are only illegal in CARB approved states that do emissions inspection. If your town doesn’t do emissions inspections, then your fine. But if you are then, might keep the stock hose just in case.

May be a dumb question, but why don't these manufacturers have this under the hood with all the other components already.

Very good video !!

The dealership I bought my 2018 F 150 said if did anything including adding a catch can it would void my warranty?

FYI along with the catch can and the new Pennzoil Ultra oil made with natural gas is less volatile. And i have notice alot less oil in my catch can. Now just more moisture than oil. So id say a good quality oil and filter with the catch can and your GDI is good to go

Great video! Is it necessary to clean the filter media in the catch can? If so, how would i know when? Thanks in advance!

Did they improve the design on the engine. I just bought a 2020 f150 ecoboost. Should I install one of these.

Dual port injection supposedly eliminates this issue, however it doesnt hurt to put one on.

Just plug the intake port and route the rubber hose to the back of the motor, pointing down. add one of those small filters if you want. You're just trying to equalize the pressure between the bottom of the crankcase and atmosphere. You might get a few drops of oil per year. Pulling a vacuum on the bottom end of your motor, you're going to pull a lot more oil up, and into the intake. This is really the beginnings of pollution control control devices. From the 1950's to the mid 1960's a 'down draft' tube was the only thing used. thats all you need now. If you take your car to the dealer for any kind of service, put the tube back to the intake, or they will void your warranty for tampering with the pollution control devices. OBD2 can't tell what you've done, so no problem there.

I have jlt can works great, easy to install took about 10 minutes , put it on at 60,000 miles on my 2011 EcoBoost wish I put it on sooner, I live in Wisconsin so in the winter months I had to buy the extended can because of the moisture, the 3 oz can filled up in less than 400 Miles.

Where did you get the bigger can and how much bigger is it

Just put mine on. The thing that took the longest was figuring out how to get the old ones off I kept looking at the new jtls and realized that those are push but there was something different about the stock connectors. Since you really didn't show how to remove those you just pulled on them and they came off it took me a while.
