got tired of cleaning up oil, so i added a new breather catch can and braided line setup

[naitram]

funny light reflection

[naitram]

the braided line came with lots of warnings about not touching anything because it would wear through it, so i covered the upper loop with electrical tape incase it rubs the gas tank

[naitram]

you can just see the edge of the taped area

[Fired00d]

Do you have to dump the catch can every so often or does it just evaporate?

theres a drain plug on the bottom

[Fired00d]

How often you think you'll have to drain it?

[naitram]

not sure, to be honest. will probally check it every 1000 or so

[Fired00d]

That's not bad then.

i assume if i go too long it will seep out the filter on top

[Fired00d]

Probably will then you're back to square one.

Didn't know they even made a catch can. Just wondering, but if everythig is working properly aren't the breather tubes suppost to suck the oil into the breather mount and then into injectors and then get burned up, thus when you excellerate hard a little smoke out the exhaust. 

[naitram]

in theroy the motor will suck it back in, but it does really work well. i circled the 2 ports it vents into the air filter much more then it can possibly be sucked back into the TB

Neal that is the first time I have seen that set up. In theory it should work. Back in the day of the "EVO" they were notorious for blow by. The answer to that was run a line down below the engine and install a "BREATHER FILTER". They worked very well you just had to clean them every service.

Where did you get your set up?

You can put clear shrink tubing over the braided line it helps with the chafing
