Lots of good info on this channel. Catch can ? That hump at the rear of the rocker cover appears to be a de-facto 'catch can'. It has an internal baffle designed to stop/reduce oil being mixed into the blowby gasses that are then returned to the intake system. A few years ago I noticed my Junky was pumping a bit too much black smoke on hard accel. Hmm, what going on here ? Block vac line to EGR valve = stop EGR valve from working. Result NO MORE black smoke and intercooler pipes internally cleaner :) EGR reduces emissions with definite long term coking of intake system.
Now that is an interesting result because mine was doing that too. Thanks for the info, however, perhaps looking at why the EGR delete has stopped the smoke is a better idea. Resolving the problem instead of hiding it is a much better solution.
@@MiniLuv-1984 Some sort type of vacuum fed intake cleaner drip feed into the pipe from filter housing does not sound that silly, glad I thought of it :)
@@MiniLuv-1984 of course not, but I have seen a video where someone was feeding water into their intakes to clean them th-cam.com/video/LFQUIGe7eRA/w-d-xo.html
@@thejackaroo4WDcampingchannel Water injection is generally used to cool the intake charge, haven't heard of it being used for cleaning, so thanks for the link Dave.

I wonder if introducing a manifold diesel injector and flowing a very small amount of deisel continuously might help clean things up a little?
Ben, not sure that diesel has the same cleaning power as petrol
@@thejackaroo4WDcampingchannel You don't want to inject petrol in the intake of a diesel or do you?
