jap/dubber Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Just been given a Blitz oil catch tank, i know what they do but is there actually any point?? Do they work 2 my advantage or am i just cluttering my bay? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bluebear Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Well, its much better than having just a breather on and having oil come out and shit up your rocker cover, especially if its polished/painted.Plus more shiny metal and tubes = CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOLAlso, i think it means you loose less oil, although probs not a noticable amount compared to having it shit over the rockercover.

Bildo Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Basically as Bluebear says, just catches any oil that comes out, unlike a breather which just pisses it all over the rocker cover and surrounding areas.I've seen a couple of people with them and they've not had even the slightest bit of oil in them after a few months of use.

minxy Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 So you guys would go with a catch tank over a breather then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_cl Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 all depends how you connect the catch can if you just have the rocker breather going to it and then another pipe venting then it will do bugger all apart from look good in the engine bay.ideally you wanna run both the rocker breather and the pcv valve into the catch can and vent it that way.or even better do as above but also have a tube running back into the air intake as it's good to have a small amount of oil going back in.

Bluebear Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Oil going into the air intake? Wouldn't that mean you'd end up burning oil if its getting dumped into the engine along with the air? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
