I looked around and felt this is the better option if you will get one. They are out of stock right now until next month for $34 plus tax. Comes with everything you need. http://www.RedBullet.net http://www.ProjectLithium.com/?ref=mG0GE http://www.Pulstar.com http://www.PlugOutPower.com Use code 7373
I ended up finding this one after some intense digging through search results. The way the internal filter is placed is how it is supposed to be to actually separate the oil from the air. This is a 7 oz can and you can use it without the air filter. http://www.RedBullet.net https://ProjectLithium.com/?ref=mG0GE http://www.Pulstar.com http://www.PlugOutPower.com Use code 7373
The first one has a bronze filter, those have been found to plug up over time, and may be too restrictive. The pressure build up in the crankcase may cause leaking seals or push oil out of the dipstick. The last one linked above, if you scan lower rated reviews on Amazon, has some problems with the drain valve leaking. If I got one, I'd either replace the drain valve with an appropriate size bolt, or thread in a barbed fitting and extension hose with a ball valve on it. Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
You get one heck of a lot of hardware options with those, still, for $35, maybe there’s some “weak link”. I’m a sucker for higher price, means it has to be better right? Not a totally absurd notion; price to some extent is driven by customer opinion, and build quality as well. if you have deep pockets, consider Moroso 85474. With it you want to apply fresh anti-seize to the large O-ring at the main body seam. Also doesn’t hurt to acquire spares. I’ve got the O-ring spec somewhere, if you’re interested.
I'd stay away from using anti-seize on o-rings. Anti-seize is petroleum based and can swell or breakdown the o-ring. Use the silicone lubricant you use for the brake slide pins, it is safe for the o-ring. Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
You may be right. Still, that's what appears to be used on the Moroso can O-rings, and when I emailed Moroso (asking for O-ring spec), that was what they recommended. Here's the spec btw. I found it readily available from a local automotive specialty store. Had to buy 10 of them to make it worthwhile for them, think it was around $10: ------------------------------------- Moroso 84574 Air-Oil Separator O-Ring: Oil-Resistant Buna-N Dash Number: 038 (Relube with anti-seize periodically) 2.614" I.D., .070" thick in Buna-N (66.40 mm I.D., 1.78 mm thick) -------------------------------------
Hmm, anti-seize, the messy silver aluminum paste? That gets on everything? The silicone grease is clear, and way less mess. Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
I have that occ installed, youll be the 2nd person on here with that occ design. The twist drain is the worst. Throw some scubs on the bottom of the can for filter media.
@Grit Cool took some time to find one better than the bronze filter. So any other issues besides the drain? Do you have pictures of your install? http://www.RedBullet.net Toyota hybrid battery upgrade pack– NexPower Energy http://www.Pulstar.com http://www.PlugOutPower.com Use code 7373
Which port is the inlet, upper or lower? If the upper port is the inlet, then the stainless steel scrub material should be above the baffle. Is the baffle removable, so you can place the scrubber there? Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
Im going to use the lower inlet as the in and the top as out. http://www.RedBullet.net Toyota hybrid battery upgrade pack– NexPower Energy http://www.Pulstar.com http://www.PlugOutPower.com Use code 7373
I recently picked up another catch can because I like how it is easier to clean. Also it is made really well. Better drain valve and filter access. This came with everything from hose to mount and I will update this when I install. View attachment 224986 View attachment 224985
This OCC similar to mint (Pic attached), but my OCC has no Old check stick. Even with Baffle and Micro Bronze Filter, there are 1-2 Teaspoons of oil found under throttle body every month. NO oil trap inside of OCC, only small amount of oil vapor as see at the picture.
