Gotta work tomorrow but I now focus on the leaking smoke. On the catch can should I expect to actually capture oil? If so how much ( roughly).
Same response as my response in post #13 for how it works. I’m sure your catch can invention will work to a degree, but you might want to put a real one in its place at some point.The can I have installed is a filter screen for an irrigation system I think. Tractor supply item. I lined the screen with Scotch bright. When I remove the hose the filter seems to have little effect. Before we got started here I was concerned about the smoke and oil going into the intake. Like I said I'm not fully up to speed on how diesels work. If this all normal diesel characteristics I'm good less the smoke leaking.
Depends on your specific engine and how much blow by you have. I’ve never put a catch can off the IP cover to tell you liquid quantity.Gotta work tomorrow but I now focus on the leaking smoke. On the catch can should I expect to actually capture oil? If so how much ( roughly).
