This was great thank you. I had the check valve installed backwards and couldn't figure out why the can wasn't pulling any liquid! Thanks for this!!!
No problem. Glad I could help and Thanks for watching!
Thanks for your video! It helped me install mines today on my 2023 Rocky Ridge F150 5.0L V8 Coyote! Unfortunately I was losing mpg after this setup until I researched why. And that’s because lack of crankcase pressure releasing from my engine. Simple fix. I just purchased UPR’s Crankcase Breather Kit One-Way Valve Billet that replaces your engine oil valve cover and I definitely noticed a difference with my mpg and how my truck was running better! You almost can’t install a catch can without one! They run hand in hand to help relieve that crankcase pressure.
So when you replaced the valve cover PCV, how open is the UPR valve as far as jet size?
I wondered if the can would cause a slight restriction in vacuum over the short OEM tube.
This answered my question.👍👍
@@BRTbike-fz5fnI’m glad it helped you because by just installing the UPR catch can itself began to create negative crankcase pressure (not enough to cause check engine lights but enough to effect gas mileage) and adding the UPR crankcase breather one way valve billet brought that pressure back to normal all while keeping my engine bay clean because nothing but air pressure escapes, no fluids due to the one way valve billet built inside of it.
Nice how-to. But I don’t see what the benefit of the quick release is. Does it make it easier to remove the can to empty it?
Yes, the quick release makes it easier to remove the cam to empty it. Even if you didn’t have to remove the can the high-quality quit releases they use our universal to their kits and make it easier when making the hoses for different vehicles. All they need to know is the host size itself and I think they only make two different sizes. Also many of their quick releases will go right onto factory PCV fittings for all vehicles, depending on which size you have makes it easier for production and simplicity of install.
I’m interested but not really sure if there might be any issues with frees up I live in the Northeast here in New Hampshire and it looks like the can will be rattling pretty good with vibration with just that one mounting point
Never seen or heard it rattle at all. And if the contents have enough water to freeze as long as the cans not completely full, it wouldn’t make any difference
Okay thank you the UPR brand looks good and I like the fact it can hold a lager quantity of oil than other brands

I did a comparison test in 2015 when UPR made products to go inside of their competitors catch can to make it actually catch oil. on my 2015 mustang the UPR unit there was almost no residue in the exit side of the can but on two major competitors it was soaking wet with oil after 1000 miles.
In 2015 is why I still use UPR on every vehicle I’ve owned since then. Just for me to keep oil and water vapors out of my intake. Their cans are quality machine parts and UPR’s company is awesome.
Does the link you provided include both driver and passenger side kits??
The link app provided is to their website where you can choose your options. If you don’t choose any options I think it’s just the base kit that does not include the driver side or the check valve.
You have to choose your options to how much you want to spend the one I installed here has everything the clean side as well as the billet check valve and magnetic drain plug.
just bought my truck yesterday, one question, on my other truck (silverado 2021) it had a high and low pressure pcv and i originally hooked up to the low side that hits the intake, i learned later that the other high pressure side is where most of the oil blows by and i had to completely rework it to the other side. Did you install on the side that actually gets the majority of the oil blowby?
It will always be the PCV valve that sucks from the valve cover into where the throttlebody is. Most vehicles it’s on the passenger side of the engine. On the other side from the intake into the valve cover, so you’re not gonna get much oil due to thedirection of airflow.
@@KnightsGarage appreciate you
2018 and newer 5.0 have dual port injetion and the catch can is no longer needed.
