I figured out what was giving me the oil burning smell now for some time and it was basically the crank case breather line that i left unpluged and just hanging and after time, it was throwing oil all over the engine bay...so i put a plastic bottle on the end of it for now.

Ive been reading up everywhere for OCC setup's and i found this one on this site:

I want to do this setup: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...0&d=1147482740

My question is : How do i rig this up for the PCV valve if i have vac lines running of it? Im planing on making my own OCC so im thinking i can make the oil hose that will drain the oil lower on the bottole and then add the vac lines above that first hole so that it won't (im hoping) suck back up the oil it drained? Will that work?

Also, do i really need a filter on the end of the crank case breather valve from the OCC on that end? Do i really need to vent it back into my intake(legal issues aside) I keep reading ill lose vac presssure...This guys said it best (denial):

"The problem with venting the entire system to the atmosphere is that, while any positive pressure is relieved, you lose the vacuuming effect from the intake manifold (under vacuum) and possible the aspirating effect from the intake nipple under boost.

Also, keep in mind that most street turboed cars spend most of their lives under vacuum--having things vented to the atmosphere isn't going to catch any of the sludge that seeps into your intake manifold during this time."

True or false or rather should i really be that worried about it that much?

 

you want it to relieve the pressure from the engine so you really need to either take it to the intake like most or even take it to the exhaust like some do.

The easiest and most effective way to do a catch can is to use a air compressor filter and put it inline with the PCV and the intake. Works great and cost all about $25-30 for everything. And dont go using an ebay can since they are empty and wont seperate the oil from the air. Also you dont need a dual setup since you only have one vent line.

 

So you mean keep all my vac line on the PCV and then add another line that goes form the PCV to the filter and the out the filter to my vac lines?

Im deff. putting a OCC on the crank case though.

 

You only have 1 line for the pcv, its the line you didnt connect on your valve cover in the pic with your bov. You just need to take a line from there to a filter/occ and then to the intake and your done. Its just that simple.
