Good morning Rich: Thank you for the Pledge of Allegiance sir + explaining the results of the catch can you installed on your Ford F150. I learned something new 😌. Please have a safe & profitable day. God Bless, TMP from N.J.
A few years ago, I added a dual catch can kit on my 2012 Mustang, and you are 100% right, the left side can is always clean and dry and the right side does contain blow by oil which doesn’t go back into the engine.
Hello Rich and thank you for your follow-up regarding Catch-Can performance. My 2011 XLT w/ 5.0 and just rolled 234k., bought used from Ford dealer June 2021. Ran a can of BG Cleaner prior to first oil/filter change. After that I installed single catch-can (dirty side) and monthly collection averages approx. 3 ozs. Oil & filter changed religiously every 2,500 with Pennzoil High Mileage 5W-30 synthetic 5 qrts and 2 qrts Lucas High Mileage Oil Stabilizer. Don't put but 7.5k annually all at highway speeds. Some may consider it a waste to my oil/filter change interval however, I look at as cheap insurance. As always Thanks for all you do and share. Be safe!
I just hit 221k on my 2012 F150 5.0, wish I had put a catch can early on but it's still running good. Never too late I guess. This is my road trip/camping vehicle. Never let me down so far.
Put on a dual catch can setup and after 1000 miles checked both cans. The clean side had a little oil at the bottom. Not very noticeable. The dirty side was almost to the top with oily water. We recently had some cold weather and the water at the bottom was frozen. The 3.5 only has 57k on it and always runs well.
I have a 2022 Foed Edge ST, 2.7L TT. First thing did was install a catch can. I check it at about every 1K miles, usually about .5 of an OZ in it but at least that isn't blowing into my engine. I also change my oil every 6 months regardless of how many miles I drove, I usually never exceed 3,500.
Rich, thanks for the information. I just installed VCT Solenoids in my 5.0L 2016 F150. It has 276,000+- miles. (I took pictures of the cams, to see if anyone local could explain the differance). It was very evident which side is the clean side and which is the dirty side. I really didn't understand why the cams on the passenger side are brown and the cams on the drivers side look silver or "clean." I had seen an earlier video you did on catch cans but hadn't given it much thought until I saw this video and then realized what I had seen in my own engine. (Big eye opener.). I put a lot of miles on my truck for work but change the fluids regularly. This long weekend I'm going to install a catch can like the one you purchased. I like the fact that the hose are equipped with the factory end clips. As always, be blessed and keep up the great work for your community and country. A friend from LA.
Thanks. I just bought a 2016 F-150 XL with all options and 112,000 miles with Carfax. The blend date was May 2016. I will do CRC GDI Turbo clean now and 1,000 miles later. I will put a J and L catch can in less then 5 minutes. PLus, I will use Motorcraft 5w-30 freshly with filter twice within 5,000 miles. Then I do my pm twice a year and thank God.
Thanks for keeping us up to date on the catch can topic. There is a lot of catch can mis information floating around out there. By the way, Ford Racing has a very good oil separator specifically for the 5.0L Coyote, both sides. I used one on my 3.5 ecoboost with check valves to catch oil from the right side at idle and from the left side at boost. (there is no "clean side" on the ecoboost) It worked very well but it was a nuisance to empty. I am now using the MANN+HUMMEL ProVent 200 Oil separator, probably the most effective unit out there with an easy to tap drain tube.
I just installed dual cans on my 2011 f150 ecoboost. I saw a spot of oil on the floor so I popped the hood and-oil everywhere including under the truck (spots running down the underside to the back. After some cleanup, I saw oil streaming out the #2 ignition coil and dripping down and soaking the starter and manifold etc. On the driver side oil is wet around the rubber sensor seals etc. I installed the cans down low in front of the radiator on each side. Very cool and out of the way application however, It took a total of 20 ft of gates hose. Clean install and no kinks and correct routing (PCV's to the ins and outs to the intakes). Ironic, but after the install I stumbbled upon a video of 'why you shouldn't use catch can on any engine', and it explains how blowby pressure will increase in your engine rather than evac quickly thru the shortly designed hoses, and will cause premature oil contamination. back to my problem- maybe I should replace or eliminate the one-way check valves before the intakes just to see if the valves are not the correct ones? I blew thru them before install and they seemed ok. Or, should I replace my VC and sensor gaskets (o ring seals)? I'm dumb founded as to how the blowby pressure can increase this much from a common ordinary catch can install or, with 167k on the truck, maybe it's just time for VC gaskets? btw, I uncrewed the r side can and I'd already got about 2 teaspoons of oil vapor debris. One other weird issue- After the install and starting the engine, I was getting a thump sound from the R side of engine ( I could hear it the loudest thru the fender well), and I timed it to once every 5 seconds. As the engine got hotter, the sound reduced to just a click every 5 sec. After I drove it a couple of miles, the noise was gone. Next cold startup- nothing. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Glenn
I added a J&L catch can to my 2023 Ford F150 Powerboost. I seem to catch about 1 Tablespoon for every 500 miles. Now that doesn't sound like a lot, but over 5000 miles, it adds up to 5 ounces of oil. I'm a believer in Catch Cans on GDI engines!
Thanks for the insight Rich, to include offerings from Dorman and the link you provided. Need one of these on lady's '09 Yukon 5.3L (AFM "magic"). Have a great Labor Day weekend.
I put a catch can on my 18 fusion 1.5 eco boost and get about that much out every month. I feel the car drives a better since my wife puts about 4000 miles a month on it. I think the small price to pay is worth a cleaner engine since after seeing your video of where the oil ends up in the air intake, I need to find time to clean it out. Thanks for all the good information and how to you have given.
I have a dorman catch can and love it. Can obtain from O'Reilly's or AutoZone. It's on my 95 mustang gt. Works great. Only put it on because I pulled the upper intake manifold and the amount of oil didn't concern me but had the same mindset as you. As much as I can eliminate going back into the system then I am happy. Has become less "stinky" while driving as well. Nature of the old motor.
My 2015 F150 with the 3.5 EB creates way more than that In a month. I drain every other fill up and get it half way full. Definately want it on the Ecoboost
@AW28 I'm installing one on my 2014 F150 ecoboost. It obviously has the filter element inside, how often do you have to clean it? Or do you just buy a new can some where down the line?
@@CWB1863 Is it a wire/metal filter? I have a mesh at the top that keeps any debris from entering the engine. Never noticed it get clogged, but a spray of brake cleaner every so often may help.
@@AW28 Doesn't feel like mesh, more the wire/metal filter. Good call on the brake cleaner, or possibly Ballistol. Great for guns...cleaning/lubricating guns etc... to keeps down rust. Thanks for the response.
I run the ford performance catch can on my 2018 f150 and on my 22 bronco 2.7 I run duel catch can and was really surprised how much I get from the supposedly clean side. It’s worth running them for sure
I just purchased a 2016 F150 with a 5.0. Fluids, filters, and catch can will be tops on my list of things to do. What is your opinion regarding the water pump? Should I change it? The truck has 110,000 miles.
@fordbossme, with you saying that a dual catch can system is pointless, is that the same with the gen 2 3.5 eco boost. I thought I saw that the passenger side gets dirty with no boost but the driver side gets dirty with boost. I appreciate your time and what you provide for content.
You didn't listen clearly to what I was saying because if you did you wouldn't have started out with your initial statement of me saying that a dual catch can is pointless and then rolling right into a 35 EcoBoost analogy or question because you would have clearly seen that I said on a turbocharged application it would be more beneficial but not on naturally aspirated and I'm not trying to come at you and be disrespectful but I do want you to pay attention when I do say things in my videos please because it's disrespectful to me when I put out the information and people don't listen even if you got to go back and watch the video again
As a 3rd generation mechanic and engine builder I don't use catch cans on my turbos. Use a good synthetic Oil change every 5k miles, tier 1 gasoline and change the pcv valve and coolant at 50k miles! I have yet to see a intake valve failure on any customers but lots of turbo failure!!
@@FordBossMehave you ever seen a racing engine run on methanol? They are spotless! Don't believe it try running your dirty lawnmower on methanol for a season and take a look. You Will have to adjust the air fuel ratio but it will work. Intake valves had build up in the old days due to the fuel 😂
Good afternoon Mr Rich hope y'all are having a great day 😁 going to play with the new scanner today, hope launch makes a good one lol, already called them to ask a few questions 😅😊
Thanks for the video like the vids. Got a question, I got a 3.5 used 170k. The first thing I did was install a catch can. I was getting the same black you got but with brown mud on the bottom. The pan bolt and oil filter were seized. Changed oil and filter, first catch can check its like chocolate milk color, same oil/gas smell but no mud on the bottom it’s all the same viscosity now but chocolate milk. Idk
@@FordBossMe well it’s gone now, but the catch can fluid changed from black to a chocolate milk color after first oil change. I’m getting mixed reviews on wether or not black or tan color is better to be found in the catch can.
@@Branhawk Good question. My 2014 3.5 is black, but very minimal amount(quarter of an inch) after 2k miles. Seems like i've been taken very good care of my truck.
Driver side is clean yes, until motor goes under boost then it draws from the driver side crankcase ...so you will see the can fill up... just not as fast
Hey I have a 2015 f150 3.5 ecoboost and I failed my visual part of my smog check in California because I had a catch can installed. Didn’t really know how to fight it so I removed it for the retest and than reinstalled it.
@@FordBossMeFrom everything I have been told and read, a catch can will void your powertrain warranty along with most other mods. I think a catch can is a good thing, but something to think about before installing one if you are under warranty.
I like the first part of the video it should be the permanent intro!!!!!!! I guess it might keep the cat clean and maybe other things MAYBE but the vapor might still have buildup? I kinda feel like that extra oil lubes the valve stems and puts addives to places that are going to get vapor buildup anyway I am on the fence about it. Could only truly know with two test engines over a long time and no one has done it.
Also would it get less or more carbon build up ??????? Sounds like a job for project farm LMBO you could do this experiment on small engines running for a month.
I have a catch can on my 2020 boosted mustang gt. I was thinking about putting one on my 2011 f150 5.0. However the mustang is parked during the winter and I drive my f150 then. I've heard there can be issues with a catch can in cold climates. I read condensation can freeze up the catch can and block it off completely. What's your thoughts on that?
Yes if you get water inside the catch can and you don't drive it every single day and it just gets parked condensation can build up but that's from driving and then shutting it off and not getting the engine I don't know and not dumping it often enough upset of that nothing's going to happen it typically come from lack of dumping the can in the winter but it doesn't just build up moisture sitting in the garage you have to be driving it and then shutting it off fairly quick
Rich, now that I understand more of the catch can theory, I have a '22 f350 6.7 is this something that will work with my truck? After seeing this, I'm a bit concerned.
@@anthonygrebner Rich thank you so much for replying, that in itself is just one of the many reasons I respect you and what you're doing on your channel. Don't ever stop teaching us things from your perspective and experience. God Bless you and your family.
So that wasn't me that replied that was somebody else and there is an update to the crankcase ventilation filter that sits on the driver side valve cover, they have a serviceable filter in the old ones but the new ones you don't have to service the filter anymore because there isn't a filter inside one and if you reach out to Aaron on Powerstroke Tech talk he can show you all about it
And it's not so the oil doesn't get in the intercooler that's going to happen it's so the oil doesn't get back into the engine to keep the combustion as clean as possible
Everyone bought all them after the video DYRDINSHOW Oil Separator Tank Catch Can Compatible with F150 5.0L 2011-2020 Ecoboost 2.7L 2015-2020 Ecoboost 3.5L 2011-2020 ，Oil Separator Passenger Side 3.0 Ounces black a.co/d/1bh67Vu
So I have one of the dreaded 2011 sonatas and had the class action engine put in at 65k , new one has about 150k on it now but eats about 20oz of oil every 300mi , what catch can would you recommend for this car ?
Nobody's really going to say anything about a catch cat but if you're really that worried save the hose that you're replacing put it back on before you go to the dealer and then you're fine
That's up to you you have port and direct injections so your engine is going to stay pretty clean overall but it wouldn't hurt anything if you had a pretty cool dealership but if you're worried don't do it
So in essence your saying, second catch can only for the hp side of the turbo?! Also Rich, i see your morning routine is really super consistant. I acknowledge you for that. Do you get out of bed same exact time each morning? Because that actually really takes something to keep going.
That's nothing. You should see what that 3.5 twin-turbo engine does. The 5.0 you have I would have guessed had less, but as you said, every drop not fed back into the truck is a longer life on the entire driveline, ESPECIALLY the catalytic converters, which hate burned oil! Friend though, he gets half to three-quarters of his can filled monthly. His truck is stock minus the catch-can. It even sits lower in the front like stock, but he tows so it levels out when he does that.
lol check your oil level you clearly have too much oil that’s not blow by that’s because your checking the oil with the dipstick pushed all the way down.Overfilled, my tuned eco boost wouldn’t have that much in 4 months only when it’s below freezing because of the moisture when it thaws out

Do any automotive companies install them from the factory? Why or why not?
Will a catch-can remove some of the fuel that ends up in the oil in an ecoboost? Thank you for your videos.

Very interesting to see the one month review!
I have a question for when did it air cleaner become an air box what are you doing carry a box air around with you
I just emptied my oil catch can after a month. About same maybe slightly more. 94,000 miles 5.7 Hemi
I have 5k on mine and have only collected a tablespoon. Surprised there wasn't more. Only did the single catch can on the more problematic/dirty side.
Thanks for the video like the vids.

Yes
For 1 month, that seems like a lot of oil, that is kept from going back into the induction, which is a good thing.

That is correct. You only one catch can on the dirty side. However, I still see a little bit of oil going inside the intake. Is this normal?

Yes if you get water inside the catch can and you don't drive it every single day and it just gets parked condensation can build up but that's from driving and then shutting it off and not getting the engine I don't know and not dumping it often enough upset of that nothing's going to happen it typically come from lack of dumping the can in the winter but it doesn't just build up moisture sitting in the garage you have to be driving it and then shutting it off fairly quick
Rich, now that I understand more of the catch can theory, I have a '22 f350 6.7 is this something that will work with my truck? After seeing this, I'm a bit concerned.
No benefit. 6.7 has one from the factory, sits on the driver's side near the fuel filter.
@@anthonygrebner Rich thank you so much for replying, that in itself is just one of the many reasons I respect you and what you're doing on your channel. Don't ever stop teaching us things from your perspective and experience. God Bless you and your family.
So that wasn't me that replied that was somebody else and there is an update to the crankcase ventilation filter that sits on the driver side valve cover, they have a serviceable filter in the old ones but the new ones you don't have to service the filter anymore because there isn't a filter inside one and if you reach out to Aaron on Powerstroke Tech talk he can show you all about it
@@Cwell4267 I'll follow up that it does appear mishimoto does make a catch can for additional protection. Or you could vent to atmosphere 😉
Dont you also want a can on the drivers side (clean side) so you dont get oil in the intercooler?
And boosted applications a catch can on the driver side would be okay but on naturally aspirated it's not necessary
And it's not so the oil doesn't get in the intercooler that's going to happen it's so the oil doesn't get back into the engine to keep the combustion as clean as possible
@@FordBossMe thank you for the reply! Mine is the 2022 ecoboost so I may go for the dual can
Hey Rich, do you have a link for the can you purchased? I would appreciate it, thanks bro.
Everyone bought all them after the video

So I have one of the dreaded 2011 sonatas and had the class action engine put in at 65k , new one has about 150k on it now but eats about 20oz of oil every 300mi , what catch can would you recommend for this car ?
That can is going to fill up constantly, you need a big one and I'm not sure what that is
It’ll fill up faster during the winter
Can installing a catch can void the warranty?
Nobody's really going to say anything about a catch cat but if you're really that worried save the hose that you're replacing put it back on before you go to the dealer and then you're fine
Thank you!
Would you recommend it on a 21 F150 2.7 ? Ive heard its not going to do anything, id be waiting my money due to new injection setups.
Sorry waisting not waiting!!😊
Yes
Very interesting as usual.
Hey boss should I put one on my 2022 f150 5.0 with 9k miles or should I wait after warranty is done?
That's up to you you have port and direct injections so your engine is going to stay pretty clean overall but it wouldn't hurt anything if you had a pretty cool dealership but if you're worried don't do it
@@FordBossMe thank you 👍
I have a 2017 F-150 5.0 Lariat with 33,000 miles. I drive it probably once or twice a week 15 to 35 miles. Would you recommend a catch can?
Doesn't hurt and you probably should drive it a little more
It may take 10 miles to get the Engine Oil upto working temperature.
I have one on my 2018 F150 3.5 and I get the same amount of oil but I check it every 3 months
So in essence your saying, second catch can only for the hp side of the turbo?!
Also Rich, i see your morning routine is really super consistant. I acknowledge you for that.
Do you get out of bed same exact time each morning? Because that actually really takes something to keep going.
Some time daily
Hey might sound dumb but do you put that oil back in the engine or no?
Heck no
That's nothing. You should see what that 3.5 twin-turbo engine does. The 5.0 you have I would have guessed had less, but as you said, every drop not fed back into the truck is a longer life on the entire driveline, ESPECIALLY the catalytic converters, which hate burned oil! Friend though, he gets half to three-quarters of his can filled monthly. His truck is stock minus the catch-can. It even sits lower in the front like stock, but he tows so it levels out when he does that.
I wish school districts would bring back Pledge of Allegiance 🇺🇸
My son's school does it. Its a private religious school and all the parents insisted on it.
Still do it in some of parts of Texas.
I don’t know that it’s been abolished…
@@tankskins so schools are bring back Pledge
The heck? Every single school still does that 😂
Does this work on 2010 F150 interesting
Yes
Amazing
Good stuff
For an inexpensive catch can it fits like a glove and looks factory. It appears to be doing its job.
Good video
Less wear / tare on exhaust $ystem components 🤙
lol check your oil level you clearly have too much oil that’s not blow by that’s because your checking the oil with the dipstick pushed all the way down.Overfilled, my tuned eco boost wouldn’t have that much in 4 months only when it’s below freezing because of the moisture when it thaws out
For the life of me I can’t get mine to screw off anymore
Guys you are catching vapors that cool down into a liquid 😂
Troll somewhere else
