5+ hours of looking up oil separator reviews and this is by far the best side-by-side comparison. You sir have earned yourself a subscriber
Thank you TotalBeast93, that means alot! appreciate the sub as well bud!
TotalBeast93 . I had not heard of this product until last night. Have watched six videos and agree with you completely. The best video out there.
I absolutely agree. Very well done and I think you changed my mind. Ford is the way to go for my shelby. Thanks.........
Which one the best jlt or ford?
This video has got to the best one that describes how the catch cans work. Thank you
Thanks Josh Haney! Glad to hear that and thanks for watching!
What a great video. You should make a documentary on climbing Mt. Everett or how install a super charger for a weekend project. Sound effects are the best... makes me feel like I'm in the garage. Great job!
Haha! thanks Greg and_Machiko! I may just do! thanks for the ideas bud!
Thank You for sharing this, what a great job, very nicely done as I knew nothing about Oil catch cans.
You're welcome Paul! glad to hear it helped and thank you for watching bud!
Very well done. I have the FP separator on my GT350. I use a shop towel to clean the oil out.
Thanks Neal , I will give the shop towel method a try! that sounds like the easiest cleanest method..
Best way is to use a syringe without the needles. Just suck it out. 2 second job.
@@PAP4BEAR The Ford Performance one is designed to be poured out the bottom line....could lose those tiny allen screws easy or not tighten/over tighten them easy too. Very clean way of emptying this way.
Wondering if the Ford Can will fit on a 2020 Explorer ST
Great video.. especially the sound effects
LOL Thanks Man!
Can you do an updated video and add the UPR Catch Can to this review?
The Ford performance will fit in a Maverick 2022?
The filter on the JTL looks like the pcv filter on the older 5.0 Mustangs
The Ford Performance one really is designed to be emptied by pouring out of the bottom connector. Simply push up on the plastic fasteners with a pick or trim tool, disconnect both lines and lift up. Very easy.
Yes that’s correct I haven’t had to empty mines yet, it so awesome they are so big they hold plenty of fluid but will try this out next oil change.
JLT recommends using brake cleaner on the filter every 15K-20K miles.
Could probably use K&N filter cleaner on the filter. Use syringe to empty.
wil th Ford Performance work ona 16 FiST?
Very nice review. Thank you.
Thank you D Evans, it's appreciate it!
Love the sound effects bro
Thanks man! LOL!!
@@AlexAutoFun ❤️
Great video. Wondering if this part is available for 2020 F150 5L. I haven't had any luck finding the part number online anywhere. Appreciate it.
Thanks Henry Ford! (awesome screen name by the way!) So far only JTL has an oil separator for it amzn.to/33OtSaP the don't have the OEM look as Ford Performance but they perform just as well and since they are black they blend in with the engine bay, while the listing says 2019 according to JLT it should fit 2020. Hope this helps!
@@AlexAutoFun appreciate the quick reply sir! Thank you
Question, 7:50 do you wash or clean that metal filter?
Hi Metatron Men, I actually don't wash the filter element, I would worry it would introduce water or moisture into the engine, some paper towers should suck up any oil of it (I personally don't remove or clean mine, it it looks oily but not dirty), hope this helps!
how often do you need to empty the JLT one ? I saw that the ford one supposed to have enough space to hold until each oil change (5k miles ish)
Hi L! It really depends on several factors, including engine application, vehicle use etc. Here is my follow up video where I cover this in more detail and an example case czcams.com/video/YgzPhczF6-k/video.html Cheers!
So would I need two for a 5.0? One for each bank?
Hi woonjake, typically most people install once of each side but maximum protection but the passenger side one seems to be the main one that is a must. Thanks for watching bud!
Will the Ford catch can work on a focus st? 🤔
Oh man that would look awesome, I'm pretty sure it could be adapted, I just don't know if anyone has done it. Or be nice if Ford Performance came out with a series just for the ST and RS you know? Thanks for watching Antonio!
All 3 of them could have simply installed/supplied these catch cans with a drain plug with an OPEN/CLOSE ball cock drain....for got who made the one I have on my 2011 Mustang GT CS, but honestly, is a dream come true...no fiddling ,no unscrewing anything....simply remove the red silicone stopper, turn the level to OPEN and drain into a cup....easy peasy! It looks like the JLT only difference is it not painted black! wish I remember who makes it, I'll check it out and let you guys know!
Hi Mario! Interesting, I haven't seen some with a ball cock drain in a while but yeah it would make the drain process easier. Here is my follow up video on the efficiency of oil capture for each side (in case you are deciding between running single or dual catch can setup) Hope this helps and thanks for watching bud!
I have a Full Race oil catch can that’s huge. It’s the largest of all I’ve seen. Also, it has a drain-cock for easy emptying. It’s made for F-150 EcoBoost motor applications.
I modded my Expedition for its installation. Worked great!!! That is until I installed the Full Race charge air cooler (intercooler) kit on my truck; also meant for the F-150. One of the items the kit included was a TurboSmart BOV (blow-off valve).
After the installation of those components my oil catch can ceased to collect any oil contaminates. Was thinking that was because they were released via the BOV.
I’m now thinking that after all this time my BOV could be adjusted to a higher release pressure as I feel I’m loosing some boost under heavy acceleration. Thus, I may also be loosing the necessary vacuum needed to suck the contaminants in the catch can.
Contemplating re-installing the Full Race setup because the JLT installed to take it’s place has such a small capacity.
Maybe I’ll look at the JLT 3.0, or the Ford Performance setup.
Thanks for the great review!!!
thank you for the review, can I use it on ford ranger raptor 2lt biturbo?
You're welcome Hutin! ahh good question, I have heard of people trying to do so but I haven't confirmed if anyone has actually done it. If I do hear it works I will let you know bud!
@@AlexAutoFun thanks a lot,keep it up 👍🏻
hi, which u mean is best for a mustang eco. thx
Hi Die! Not sure if the Ford Performance will bolt directly to the Ecoboost engine. It may have to be modified to fit which at that point you may as well consider going with a fully aftermarket one since they are universal and the person installing it picks the hoses, clamps and location necessary for installation. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
the inlet always enters the area of volume where pressure drop causes liquid to condense, and exit is after the filter or screen, which causes the finest vapours to collect condense and drop out , causing all oil vapour to be separated before entering the intake.
My catc can is building up a bit of condensation idk how to fix this
That's really odd LoS Marley, is it water mixed with oil? any other issues like steam coming out of the tail pipe? (which would point to coolant entering the combustion area)
@@AlexAutoFun no looks like only clear water, during summer i had a bit of oil in can. Once winter started its been a bit of water
If you have the FP, make sure all 4 connections are tightly pushed and click. I had condensation and had a connection not pushed in.
@@mrad6529 its all good now i had to sell my mustang
@@MarleyJr90 why 😆 did you sell
does the ford performance will work on my 2014 F150 v8 5.0L?
Francisco Aguilar yes it should
Does the 5.0 need 2 of these??
Hi David! for the 5.0 Coyote the main one people install is the on the passenger side (since that side seems most of the oil blow by) here is that one if you need it amzn.to/2RM5gsG Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Would this help with E85 particles from going into your oil?
Hi Gilly! that's actually a good question I'm not sure but would be interested to test one out and see results, let me know if you end up experimenting with one bud!
I can see dropping the bolts. Somewhere in the engine bay. Being forever lost 🤣🤣
Hi Gary! Yep very possible! the engine bay is like a black hole that just keeps making my 10mm sockets and random bolts disappear! LOL!
@@AlexAutoFun yes it does, I I got one of the jlt models 3.0 , for my edge st, and ordered one for my girlfriend's edge sport
Nice! yeah I like my JLT one, I had it in my Cobra for the longest time, was one of the items I took off before selling, thing is built like a tank..
@@AlexAutoFun but this only takes care of the back portion of the it , I've seen one of the jxp, or something like it that goes into the turbo inlet tubes. And towards the front of the vehicle but a a much higher cost, about 500,-700 dollars
@@garys9718 Ouch! pricey! 😮On my SRT4 and on my Cobra I only ran a single one but yeah I heard that dual set ups in some cases are better (on the Shelby I'm running a dual setup)..
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Does ford make one for the 2015 Edge Sport 2.7L? I can’t find one online.
Hi Desert Rider, not sure if you ever got one but looks like JLT has them now amzn.to/30YXMr2 Hope this helps bud!
try JBL
Anyone know if that Ford performance one fits on a 2016 3.5 EcoBoost f150
Logan P I have seen a few videos on this. I believe there is a specific design for each Ford engine. 5.0, 2.7 EcoBoost and 3.5 EcoBoost have different design but they all work the same.
I can see the filters getting soaked with water and freezing if not maintained daily in the winter.
Hi Pmaint! Interesting, have you seen air filter soaked in water or frozen with water? I have not experienced very low temperatures, so I have not heard of that issue, do you know what temperatures would cause that, the main issues I'm aware of in extremely low temperatures is antifreeze mix has to be adjusted, likely a block heater is needed and lower weight oil. Cheers!
@@AlexAutoFun I've seen condensation in pcv's that freezes but they thaw out because of their location. They get warm real quick after starting the engine. Any catch can I've ever seen also has condensation in the can mixed with oil it looks milky and gross. Certainly not anything you want mixing with your engine oil. I don't know at what temperature that condensation would freeze at because it does have a little bit of oil mixed with it. Thanks for the video lots of good info.
@pmaint1 Man glad you shared this, I never knew, and definitely should be a factor when considering adding a catch can. Cheers!
Your sound effects are cracking me up
LOL! Just trying to add to the viewing experience!
JLT all the way! I can’t take you seriously with the Ford catch can lol 😂 it’s your favorite 🤣
LOL! Yeah I actually run all the ones I showed and a couple other brands, it depends on the vehicle I'm using it on, for some I like the stealth look and for others were they are heavily modified I go for the aftermarket look (part of the issue here is we been getting a lot of hassle by police at car meets, they pull you over to "check" under your hood for "illegal" mods, which is why I haven't attended as many meet as before unfortunately but I guess that is part of the joys of living in California lol)
Ford performance all day
Fully agree with you Constantine Z!
Grab one off Amazon.. save yourself $100
Hi Jay Dee, any particular one you recommend? I'm always looking to review other options, let us know what you found and thanks for watching Jay!
No UPR what Garbage your site it.
Hi Chiefordnance! not sure what UPR your are referring to, can you point me to the point in the video where it comes up? I like to make sure I didn't get something confused, thanks man!
I have a UPR and the damn PVC valve is leaking oil. They're not superior.
