0.5 Litre Universal Oil Catch Can With Breather Filter Different Color
1. DESCRIPTION:
The idea behind the oil catch tank is to stop oil going into the inlet side of the engine. On a stock factory car there is usually a engine breather which comes out of the cam cover and goes into the air intake somewhere. This is fine for normal cars but with a high performance car you tend to push the car harder building crankcase pressure and pushing more oil out of the breather, this then goes into the intake system which hinders performance and gums up vital components. With a catch tank this oil is stored in the tank and doesn't make it back into the engine maintaining performance.
This tank also has the added bonus of a magnetic drain plug which can help forewarn of up and coming engine problems
2. Specification
An oil catch tank is used in turbo applications, or high-performance racing applications where excessive blow-by (leakage past the piston rings) of air and fuel vapor occurs. This creates a positive pressure in the crankcase. During engine operation, blow-by gases, as well as oil mist from the rotating components of the engine, pass through the PCV valve and are routed back into the intake for the engine to burn off. However, some of the oil mist and other by-products settle along the engine intake and over time form a gunk. The oil catch tank collects such oil mist and condenses the fuel vapors while allowing cleaner gases to be passed back into the intake.
