  • Must watch so you dont make this big mistake with a gdi or direct injection engine because the oil catch can and intake valves can give you disaster also check out my video on crc vs seafoam crc intake valve and turbo cleaner or stp and royal purple along marvel mystery oil. #seafoam #16oiltournament

    One of the best aftermarket methods that I have seen for GDI engines is a tuned remote port injection system which is usually used when you want to make more power but it also eliminates the carbon build up of the valves. It's basically a small aluminum piece that goes between the head and the intake manifold with fuel injector ports to spray right behind the valves. That is by far the best method, Ford now made it a OEM item for their GDI engines and Toyota has been doing this for awhile now on GDI engines.

    I agree with you. As you run it more n more and drain the catch can after a few 10'000 miles maybe 20k or 30k you start to see the catch can mud is less and less dirty looking. My vw gti eventually had a real light mocha color almost getting to caramel in color where as the first time drainage on the catch can was chocolate mud sludge water. Lol

    Hey Nate. I have the same engine in my fprte. I recently installed an oil catch can, although i went with a vented system thinking it would be better to just vent the excess blowby rather than having it return to the intake and gum up my valves My question for you is that both the pcv valve on the front of the valve cover and the rear seem to both be letting out positive crankcase pressure. Neither seem to be sucking in fresh air. Can i run both lines to the same vented catch can? Thanks a lot man! Love your vids!

  • @lamarw7757

    I sure hope that piston at 1:13 was an example of how to create blow by. I'm rebuilding a 77 GMC 350, I bought used, and found most of the rings just like that. There were broken rings on two pistons, because someone didn't remove the ridge. I've been driving it since 95, that way. A good example of why I trust no one with things I can't see.

  • @aravindpta1
    @aravindpta1 Před 4 lety +11

    Looks like we missed something here. The air from the PCV, after going through the catch can should be routed back to the intake. That way, we'll supply the engine with a little oxygen depleted air. That air along with an ECU controlled EGR valve will help in lowering pollution.

    @gilsondia Před 4 lety +12

    you have done it totally wrong, there are 2 hoses getting out from the head cover, one goes after the throttle, and one before, this is because one or anothe will have negative pressure, or it will suck air from the head, in order to keep it as little pressure it can be, if you step on the gas, the negative presurre change from before the throttle to after, you cannot just set a breather filter and that will fix your carbon deposites on the intake valve, the only good solution is set a eletric vacuun pump in order to have as much as you can presure that builds up inside the engine, your engine right now is more likely to leak oil from any seal because you got more presurre inside the engine with this PCV delete, think about this, the intake before or after the throttle sucks air, and this helps to take the pressure inside the engine due to blow by, or you keep PCV correclty with a 2 catch cans one for each head output(or a catch can with 2 parts separeted, or a vaccum eletric pump in order to realease the engine internal pressure more efficent(if you can keep negative pressure inside the crank case better, less resistance).

  • @metatronmen2431
    @metatronmen2431 Před 4 lety

    Hello, im here because im looking for the more efficient way to avoid carbon formation, the purpose of the PCV is be environmental only, back in the days cars had a hose hanging down from the engine oil cap all the way to the ground, engines now and back works very much in the same way modern engines have a lot of electronics, fuel injection, electronic distribution, bla bla bla but the core engine itself remains the same, 4 cycles, valves, pistons, levers, crankshaft, etc. Too much is going on inside the crack case, oil splaying everywhere, massive pressure over metals heat the oil and it vaporize it in small quantities, pistons rings let gases pass to the crank case as well, like i said is a lot going on in there the result is a lot of gases, mist of oil rises up by heat and vapor, etc and all this is consider pollution, so somebody invented the PCV great, PCV dont give you better performance, actually dont give you nothing more than be proud you are protecting the environment in exchange to screw your car and eventually you going to have engine problems, no the government, no the dealer, you going to have to deal with it. In my opinion modify the car to the old school way is the only way to avoid carbon formation in a GDI engine, you no necessarily have to drop the oil in the road, instead install the breathing hose to a catchcan and seal with a plug the entrance in the intake manifold. Keep the original hoses.

Yes you should have a catch can on GDI engines. Quit being ignorant. The ONLY exception is DUAL injection systems which spray fuel mixture on the valves and a second injector further down in the cylinder.

      But if a simple catch can helps I would install it anyway. Oil into the intake also means burnt oil in the cats or particle filter (if it is the case). Also make sure you don’t create a restriction with the new fittings/hoses because it can increase pressure in the crankcase and cause gasket leakage

      The cost and why would they make a gdi with the carbon buildup issues and then add extra fuel injectors to stop the problem. Unfortunately a oil catch can will not stop the problem. Engineers, maintenance schedule the oil change is one great example of how they word the maintenance to sound better? Or more likely wishful thinking how people go with regular service interval of 7500 miles when the majority of people fall into the 3000 mile interval as the manufacturer suggests if you drive under 20 minutes depending on outside temperatures, hills mountains, dusty area , stop and go traffic, many other conditions, my favorite lifetime transmission fluid.

      @rotorblade9508 Před 3 lety

      Actually the manufacturers put oil recuperation systems but it depends on the producer. As you can see the manufacturers did a flawed design because oil should not get into the intake and the valves should not build up with carbon. There are solutions to that: oil recuperators (then if you install an additional one it helps a bit, but don’t create a restriction so maintain the same diameter of the inner tube), and also many engines have MPI injection as well but it’s funny they actually added the mpi for different reasons but it keeps the valves clean :)

    about as confusing and rambling a presentation as I have heard. Got ZERO information except that your must watch reveal was that it is a GDI engine to start with. And it appears that what you have done is to just vent the crankcase to atmosphere thru the oil separator and breather element attached. This of course is how internal combustion engines were vented back in the beginning....just a simple road draft vent tube.
