[VR-VS] Install a catch can on a ecotec V6

Yeah a catch can is a catch can. Get one of the size and colour that suits with hopefully the correct number and size hose fittings to make life easier.

What size and how many fittings do I need for a vz? Btw you've been a great help I appreciate it.

that's exactly the same as the one I used except mine doesn't have any of the writing on it

If you only plumbing into the one line then 2 fittings are fine + you want a drain fitting if possible

Installing an oil catch can is so much easier on a VE. The tube runs from the crank case all the way to the air intake. Took all of 10 minutes to slap one in.

G'day Fellas,

Any ideas on how to put a catch can on a 2000 model VX with the L67 motor at all? I noticed when I did the LIM gaskets that the TB and all the intake from there to the blower were full of black build up, as was the LIM. I cleaned as much as I could, but it's now back. Thinking of mounting it on the fire wall just near the TB.

Cheers,
Chris

So what improvement exactly are there?
Would love to hear about the catch can for the L67.

 

[vx limo]

Yeah, me too lol.

I've done a few searches but not alot comes up for the poor ol' L67... well not to answer the questions I have anyway, there is definately no shortage of info on this forum, that's for sure! Been thinking about this for a while, but I don't even know where the hell my PCV is. lol

That ^^^ is not ture, you want a catch can with an internal baffle or a removeable top so you can stick some steel wool inside it to catch the oil becasue without a baffle or something to catch the oil it will still make it through the can. Thats probably why you found very little oil inside your catch can immortality it is not getting caught in the can.
