Thanks for the great comment !!! I love the plastic fittings as they make the job so much cleaner. Plus it makes it real easy to take the can in and out :) Thanks !!
Thanks for the comment brother !!! You should do it !!!! I do a lot of custom work so if you want send me an email to garagekingcanada@gmail.com and I can set you up. The connectors are kind of expensive if you go to Amazon. I have an overseas distributor I work with so I have what you need as I have done multiple application instals. Have a great weekend :)
Thanks Drew, really appreciate the comment!!! I got that plastic press machine, as I wanted to do something different and give it an OEM feel. Plus with the quick connects it's really easy to disconnect if I want. I just did the same thing to a new Corvette Z06 and it turned out great. Now I know why all the OEM's are using plastic!!! Thanks again!!
I did some research the way the 3.5 is engineered it doesn’t need a catch can you can do the research yourself Now if you have a engine you race and produce serious rpm I would deff use a catch can to trap blow by but for everyday driving it’s not needed I installed one on a 2013 challenger with a 392 hemi with a bigger cam and I would only get small amounts of oil about 3-4 oz every 10k miles and the only purpose of it is to get higher octane in the combustion camber But look at it this way a little oil in the gas never hurt anything ever your pretty much giving some lube in the cylinder walls Great video though I use the holes on that fender for a fuse holder bracket for 12v accessories relays , lights ,and solar panels I need to start a channel but I work 60 hours a weeks and never have time to put a full effort into you tube Great video well detailed and I will be using the fittings you showed it gave a guy a. Great idea for a water tank install on the Tacoma be nice to wash your hands after work or when you need to clean up when your in remote areas when camping or on the trail
Thanks for the comment, and good for you for doing research !!! I know how the 3.5 is engineered. It has another set of port injectors and will go into cleaning mode, and that's why it sounds like its a diesel at times :) It's cleaning. Sorry to hear about your challenger not catching much, but I will let you in on a secret. Most catch cans are junk and really don't work. Very few actually do work and I wonder what kind of can you bought for your 392? I bought my Toyota new when this engine technology was not proven so I put a catch can on. There is also a ton of opinions on LPSI, and whether a catch can works for that. I have to respectfully disagree with you regarding your comment of "a little oil in the gas never hurt anything" Toyota specifically says in its patents that blowby should be eliminated as much as possible. That is why the 3.5 has the cleaning cycle, the factory PCV is not efficient enough. Now does the 3.5 L need a catch can? Probably not, but a good one will keep the engine cleaner. As a licenced mechanic I have to say that through my experience rebuilding engines, I have never seen a clean engine fail. When I have taken them apart I commonly find oil control rings on pistons clogged up, and build of carbon everywhere. Now where I think these catch cans are really needed is on direct injected (DI) engines that have no cleaning cycles, and supercharged engines. Your 392 was port injected which means your fuel injector was located in the intake port, and thus could wash your intake valve. A DI engine injects fuel directly into the engine so there is nothing to wash the valve so the dirty air passes over the valve and a build up of carbon occurs over time. Toyota saw this and added a set of port injectors to its 3.5L Kuddos to Toyota !!!!! I wish more manufacturer would take this approach with DI engines. Just google lexus IS250 carbon problems.... I appreciate your comment, and thank you for it !!! P.S. If you are thinking of RU-vid do it !!!! I just do it part time, and I actually get paid every month. Start with a video here and there, and slowly build an audience. When I started I never thought I would be in the partnership program. It takes time so a good way to approach RU-vid is by slowly dipping your toes in !!!!!!
Good Work, enjoyed your video. This CAN only filters the left valve cover, how about the vapors coming from the right valve cover.(2 cans to be installed????)thanks
Hey There, glad you liked the video, all PCV are designed to flow one way so where the PCV valve is located is called the "Dirty Side" If there were suction on both sides, this would create a vacuum in the engine and the side with the stronger suction would win. So there is no suction applied to the passenger side. This way approximately 90-95% of the oil ingestion via the intake enters the “Dirty” or “foul” side of the PCV system. The other 5-10% can enter through the factory “clean” or “fresh” side tube. This occurs mainly when accelerating or at wide open throttle when intake manifold vacuum drops to zero (the pcv hose we connect for the catch can goes to the intake manifold and under wide open throttle there is no vacuum available) and crankcase pressure is allowed to build. This pressure will seek the path of least resistance, which is backwards flowing into the intake air bridge assembly from the passenger side. So for our trucks we really don't need on on the other side. I did check the passenger and there was no oil in the tube, so a catch can really would have nothing to catch on that side. NOW on a supercharged engine, or turbo, that's a bit different if you are making A LOT of boost you might need one. I'm currently installing a catch can on a supercharged corvette. I'll try to get that vid out in the next few months. If you are driving your Taco at wide open throttle, or doing some heavy towing then you might benefit from a catch can on the clean side, but from my research we really don't need one there. Thanks for watching :)
@@GarageKing thanks that’s exactly the answer I was looking for. I have a 3rd gen with a supercharger and just installed a JLT catcher on the driverside. Ill have to keep and eye on the passenger side. It was a PITA to order because of carb laws. I had it shipped to a friend in Arizona so he can bring it back to Cali for me. If the tube is dirty Ill have to go through the same process again.
@@smookee408 thanks so much for the comment brother. The JLT is a pretty solid unit !!! I can’t believe how hard it is to get stuff in Cali. These separators actually allow you engine to burn cleaner. Maybe they are worried about disposal ??? I think you are probably ok with just doing the JLT on the dirty side (as you did). I haven’t heard of anyone needing one on the other side. Thanks for the comment and glad you found the video useful :)
@@GarageKing Thank you so much for your prompt reply! Also, thank you for creating this video. It's a BIG help for me in installing one of these on my Tacoma. I really appreciate it!
Hey Brother, its M8X1.25 I had to check my other vid where I brought the catch can out for a MT truck, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gWA-CDQ8YnY.html so I had to watch that one. Its at the 3:31min mark where I confirm size. Thanks for the comment brother!!!
I can sell you some. I found that on Amazon they are too pricy, Also I have 1/4NPT threaded fittings that can go right into the can and your quick connect can snap right to that. It took me a long time to find those, when I filmed this I used the rubber to a quick connect. Shoot me an email garagekingcanada@gmail.com
If you could take the plastic cover off your engine and send me a picture from the top showing everything that would be great. I can then zoom in and take a look.
@@TheMultisportGeek Yes, Cali...... They don't want you to modify the PVC system. A sealed catch can actually makes things cleaner, and your emissions would be cleaner as well. The problem is people buy ones that vent to the atmosphere and thats no good. So instead of banning vented ones, it was easier just to ban them all. On the Toyota you don't have to cut the factory hose so I know for mine I can take it off in about 10min. Once you have everything sized its easy to take it on and off quickly if for some reason you had to.
Hey Phil, I'm going to try to rig something up for a manual transmission. Stay tuned, I just need to get the dimensions for the clutch master cylinder. Thanks again for bringing this to my attention.
Hey Phil, I was able to rig something up, I filmed it, I just have to edit the footage and upload, so probably not this Thursday, but next Thursday I will post the vid!!
Since you're making adapters for the catch can anyway why not make one side of the catch can male and the other side female then you would need an additional hose to bypass the catch can
You know brother, that is one of the most intelligent posts!!!! It is a very good idea. The only thing is that black nylon tubing does not bend very well so I'm not sure how well I could connect the two hoses if I did it that way. The extra flexible hose makes it easy to connect the two. What I should have done was your idea, and then if I couldn't connect the two easily I could have made the flexible hose with one male and and one female end. Great thinking, I wish I would get more posts like this!!!!
