Which can do you have? If it is the Rx one then you prob have it open instead of closed. Happens to me quiet a bit.

You undo the valve at the bottom

I checked mine today & it did not have a lot, but it had not been all that long since I emptied it.

Ok I bought an Elite CC and installed it over the weekend. I bought it because i see many of you stating that it's needed on these cars and I personally want my engine to last longer and not have that crud in there. I have others telling me that I wasted money and that it does nothing to help. I talk about the pictures but they say that in general if you are leaking that much oil or aspirating it that I should just buy a new engine because mine is shot.

What's the truth? Is it a necessity or is this something only for people "tracking" their cars? I already bought it but I want to know for future vehicles and my own knowledge. The famous line is get is, "Do you see Ferrari's, Lambo's, Porsche, etc coming out with catch cans on their cars off the production line?" I say no but they do have a similar condensing system...right?

These Elite catch cans are great at keeping the gunk out of the engine and the valves clean and prolong the motor and parts and keep it running better.

PM me for more info.

I've had a MM on my car for nearly a year, not a drop in it. But only 900 miles on the odometer. 90% at the track.

The stuff that gets caught in my can is way darker than that. More like a dark coffee with no creamer color

...does the color matter?
