Today we are doing a 90 day or 3 month product update and review on this video series. We are opening up the Evil Energy Universal Oil Catch Can to see what has been going on in the system for the past 90 days. We are diving under the hood on my 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis LS and checking all the connectors, hoses and clamps to see how the product is performing. Was this catch can a waste of money and time? I think not as we see how much oil has been collecting as I drive the car for 90 days. I think you will be surprised Thanks for watching.

About this item
[Universal]It can be applied to most cars, making sure there's enough room for Installation.
[Size] Hose length: 31.5in / 0.8m,hose ID:3/8",hose OD:2/3".The thread of the inlet and outlet is M16*1.5.Capacity:300ML.
[Baffled] The baffle is disassembled in a rotary manner, adding an appropriate amount of steel balls can increase the surface area of steam condensation and more effectively catch oil.
[Note] When the temperature outside reaches the freezing point or below, the crank vent system will generate a much greater amount of moisture which can present a risk of freezing. Please clean your oil catch can on a weekly or install the original PCV hose.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Wow, that was more oil than I was expecting.
Same…I’m not sure what to think about it…but to keep collecting it and pouring it out….what do you know about all that Chuck?
The drivers side line is for fresh air that goes into the engine crankcase as the PCV valve is pulling the gases/misted oil out of the engine on the other side. Don't need a Catch Can in that line. The path the fresh air flows sweeps through the inside of the engine allowing the blowby gases to escape to the Catch Can to be trapped there.
70% of the Blowby is HC's that get seperated in the CC and run through the engine again through this PCV system. If you want to test this system next level get a Digital Manometer for 30 bucks and plug it into the Dipstick Tube. You want to see about 1-2 inHg(Mercury) on the Crankcase at hot idle. This is the best way to check anyones PCV System. If the vacuum is too low the PCV Valve is stuck closed, too high and it's stuck open.
Thanks, this helps with knowing the info. 🤝🏼
The port going to the intake from the driver side valve cover allows intake air to circulate into the engine. That side should be clean.
Thanks for stopping by, appreciate the info. Where does the carbon build up come from on the throttle body and the intake plenum? Is I through that port?
O.K., three months since installing the catch can..., but how many miles? That's the answer we are looking for. Thank you, great video.
Thanks for stopping by. 3 months driving for me, I average around 5k miles.
I have mercury grand marquis 2006 and I was thinking about catch can so I see your video 👍 thinx
Thanks for stopping by, yes I didn’t think it might be any good but it looks like it’s doing its job collecting oil that would otherwise end up in the intake manifold!
Get a knee bend from the hardware store to get the bend out of the hose if you are not happy with it
I’ll look into that, thanks!
@@LoveWhatYouDrive Good video buddy😄👌
Great video series! Thank you
Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate the support!
I'm not sure about this but: I believe the opposite side that you did not connect is the "Cool Air" side that pulls dense cool air from, the air box to push the "Hot" blow off gasses into your catch can on the hot side. (There is that brown plastic "clicky" valve thing on the Hot passenger side that is a one directional value so the only way the flow should be able to move in an open direction is from cool to hot because it is a one way loop and due to pressure.) I have seen someone install the included tiny filter that comes with the kit into the driver cool side gasket to prevent any possible contamination and then they taped off the the hole on the air intake side of the hose. I could be completely wrong but I think you did it the right way but I guess it would be interesting to see if any oil does come out from the right side for this engine. Cool video I will do this once my PI OEM Intake manifold arrives from back order.
Ok, thanks for clearing it up. I did see someone on CZcams and the only reason I would want to try on the Intake side is because while making the video I realized that the throttle body has carbon build up on it so I’m guessing it’s coming from that side? 🤷🏻♂️ maybe experiment one day…
@LoveWhatYouDrive Yes, I will watch that video with interest! It would be interesting to see the result either way. If that brown plastic PVC valve doesn't do its job I could easily imagine that oil blow off might flow the wrong way just from the loop being closed and pressure building up.
Why did you put one on a Grand Marquis with MPI?
Because I like the results, and seeing what I did for someone else I said I want that. Last time I checked it was my Grand Marquis and I fit have to ask anyone…right?
Brrro brrro good job
Thanks 🙏🏼
The car feels better? Like more stable?
Not stable…define better
@@LoveWhatYouDrive stable rpm. Better response.
@@gustavogonzalez5508 I haven’t felt any performance addition, but I know that all the oil is not going to the intake manifold and causing carbon build up.
Did you also replace the steel wool in the baffle? Or did it rust at all?
Thanks for stopping by. I did not change the wool yet. This was just the only 90 day update. The wool still looked good not rusty.
Hi . Off-topic. I just finished trying to back flush my 2000 MGM and discovered my heater core has a leak. The previous owner ran a bypass and now I don't know where to connect the outlet heater hose. Your 06 engine bay looks very similar to mine. Can you help me?
I've been searching all day on Google to find a picture or diagram and have come up short
An easy way, connect a tube to the side you found. Pour some water into the core and look for the leak you'll find the other end. Usually, they are right next to each other. Are you sure you didn't find only the condensate drain?
If you Google search "-car-heater core diagram" (or any diagram of the system your working on) you can easily find where the part is, part number, and an entire exploded view of the system.
@stever2121 thanks for the response to his question, I want sure If I understood what he was asking but I’ll do is post this on the community tab so others can chime in. 🤝🏼
@@shadowdemon13 Hey thanks for your reply. When I attached 5/8 clear tubing into both intake and outlet heater core ends and rain water into outlet, nothing came out of the intake. I assumed it all leaked out of the core somewhere.
I am not understanding what you said about pouring water to find the other end???
I posted your comment in the community tab of the channel so maybe someone knows the exact answer you are looking for! Thanks for stopping by!
How many miles You made by 90 days?
Hey Bart so I do about 5,000 miles every 90 days which turns out to be 20,000 miles a year. But the last few months I’ve been doing a lot more driving for on or another reason so I believe around 6500-7000 miles probably this time around.
@@LoveWhatYouDrive That's more then my whole season.🙂
