little black can???

[ibanezxguy]

I removed a little black catch can thing right above the turbo manifold so my new one would fit. Is this going to be a problem waiting to happen? Thanks

Did you plumb it back in somewhere else? That's the OE catch can, run a hose back to the valve cover, then out to another can, or to the intake. Leaving it open will evetually cake the exhaust side of the motor in blowby.

you can run a tube straight from the side of the valve cover to the oil return (at the bottom of the catch can)

yeah i did that, im not that clueless. I just didnt know if SR had a lot of blow by and really needed that catch tank. thanks

so wait the catch can is the one that is towards the firewall and connects to a Tee coming out of the valve cover right. cuase I remember removing another thing that looked like the catch can,
