RX Catch Can Results
2 Attachment(s)
After reading the thread on the open drain valve on the RX catch can, I decided to verify that mine was closed. I put a bottle under the drain hose just in case it was. When I turned it in the only way I could, this is what came out.
This is after 1469 miles in 8 months of driving (I walk 200 yards to work). It is just over 1/4" high in a 16.9 oz bottle (500 ml). It looks like muddy rootbeer, and leaves a cloudy residue on the sides of the bottle. I am glad that this goop isn't in my intake. |
Is a catch can a necessity? If it is then why didn't chevy install them on all camaros? Please let me know so im not destroying my engine.

Usually anything stupid/harmful is EPA driven. I like to say the EPA has a lot of oil on its hands. |

The bean-counters at GM removed this can :mad0260: so that they could sell you top-end intake cleaning every 15,000 miles. Either pay $140 for the catch can to keep the intake clean forever, or $500 each time you want this nasty residue cleaned off of your valves.
