F150 & Raptor Oil Separator/Catch Can Install, Save money and your Engine for less than 50 bucks.

Thanks Brother for the video. It is funny, that the Can you installed has in the "IN" hose going to the 90Deg Valve cover Pvc connector, but the J&L can option in your link has the Out Line going to the Pvc 90 deg connector. Weird. I hooked up a cheaper version on my 2.7L, Without the 45 and 90 deg connectors already installed and my Truck would not run right Idling at 2500 rpm with the Pvc hose to in the "IN" on can and the "Out" hose to the Intake manifold.

That is interesting, My brother has the J&L I will have to take a look at it. You can always swap the in and out and see if it changes anything, but it honestly shouldn't make a difference. Either way it's still going to be filtered. I think it's mainly labeled so that people can easily install it. I have put about 20,000 on mine and the only time its had a rough idle was when it was -10 outside.

I installed a UPR on my 19 3.5 with about 45k miles on it, now has 53k. In those 8k it has caught about that amount you have, best as I can measure it. I still have a very light film of oil on my MAPs, not really enough to even make a drip, Intake runners are dry. Truck idles so smooth and accelerates great. My reasoning behind the install was if all of a sudden the can starts catching more oil, there may be something I need to check. The install hasn't improved anything nor has it been detrimental in any way. Just insurance and peace of mind.

Glad to hear! Anything you can do to make your engine last is worth it.

Great vid!👍🏻

[@diydevin]

Thank you, always great to hear feedback.

Would this work with the 5.4 3 valve?

[@diydevin]

Yes J&L and K&N make a separator that will work with the 5.4 Triton.

Hey brother, so i got a 2018 raptor with 120k miles , got engine light for code p0420 catalytic bank 1 , BUT i can tell oil leak from stuck piston rings messed the catalytic. IF i install a catch can, and do a good oil change with good additives ,would catch Can Help ? Should i do that first and then see if i still need to replace Catalytic? Thanks and God Bless

[@diydevin]

It would probably help since it pulls out all the junk from the blow by that normally would get combusted again and then run into the catalytic converter.
