Oil catch can/system...

Here's what my original one that I installed on the 1993 T-100 looks like...

Finally transferred my spaghetti jar oil catch to my new T-100. It's only on the vent side (driver no PCV) of the engine. Gonna see what kind of crud will come off of that thing. I used some 1/2" ID and 5/16" ID hose to make my connections on that side of the engine. Fer the PCV valve side (passenger) I had to use some 1/4" ID hose (leftover from the fuel filter catch can) to adapt to the PCV valve as well as the TB inlet. Everything is snug as a bug in a rug...

I only have the hoses stuffed into each other fer now...it seemed to work just fine in my other T-100 so it should work fine here. I have the smaller hose stuffed in about a good ¾" into the bigger hose.





Gonna have to build another jar fer the PVC valve side and hook it up...

It's done...and even better than my spaghetti jar one!

I used a 16 oz wide mouth jelly jar. I modded the lid by drilling out some 1/2" holes, putting some 5/16" barbed adapters, 1/2" washers, and pipe couplers as securing nuts on the bottom of the lid. I had to drill out the washers a little so the threaded part of the barbs would go through. After tightening the barbs down, I glued the coroplast divider to the lid in order to keep the fumes separated from each chamber. This forces the fumes to go through the scrubber and the heavier particles will filter out of the fumes. The filtered fumes then git sucked up through the other chamber. As the filtered particles git cooler...they will eventually drop to the bottom of the jar. The assembled lid is very stiff and won't flex.

To assemble the oil catch jar, I put the stretched out scrubber on evenly top of the jar. Next...I shove the assembled lid down forcing the scrubber to fold in half. Making sure that there isn't any scrubber strands over the edge, I screw the retainer down snug. All I have to do now is hook up my hoses. It won't matter which end is which as my design allows either side to function in the same manner. To empty/clean the jar, you just have to unscrew the lid and pull off the glass part. Clean and replace.

Piccies...









Now I still have to figure out the best way to mount it but fer now it will git wrapped up in a towel and shoved in a corner of the engine bay. Time to build another one to replace the spaghetti jar version...

Cleaned up the hoses and rerouted the driver's side to bring it over to the passenger side. They are tucked in nice and neat and easy to see/access...

Installed the Fram G2 fuel filter on the return hose to see what the jar is failing to capture going back to the throttle body. I might have to add some more stainless steel scrubbers to the jar to help with filter but not to the point where it chokes off the airflow through the jar.
