Oil catch can YES or NO?

[sdsteele2]

With the dual throttle bodies, I have noticed that the drivers side head vents to the intake ahead of the driver side TB. The passenger side vents info the manifold behind where the TBs are mounted. I wonder if that will have any impact on catch can placement.

Owners manual says to add one if you track the car, or run at high RPMs consistently.

It would be nice if someone came up with a one can system for both sides, basically dual intake and dual exhaust!

No

Watch this about port injection fixing the carbon buildup on intake valves.

So you mentioned that high detergent fuel could prevent the carbonizing the valves? So which brand name of gas actually uses high detergent fuel to prevent the problem? You left that critical info out. Why?

That was a link to another gentleman that is a former Ford Master Tech and now runs his own shop fixing Ford vehicles in the Chicago area. Best place to look for high detergent fuel is to use Top Tier Gas. Here's a link of all of them: https://www.toptiergas.com/gasoline-brands/

As soon as we have a car local we'll start working on it. Hopefully cars start shipping later this month or next.

Were you able to develop ine for Gen 4?

Oh yeah!! Check the post I linked below. It will have all of the info and content regarding the UPR catch cans. Let us know if you have any other questions in the meantime.

Thanks! https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/upr-s650-catch-can-development-lets-gooo.158383/

Has anyone compared the J&L vs UPR catch cans? J&L is cheaper, but I don’t know enough about oil separators to decide which is a better buy.

For anyone that doubts whether a catch can is needed or if it works or not.

My .02 is they certainly don’t hurt anything and they do catch oil.

Would installing an oil catch can affect the Ford warranty in any way?

So I have a Gen 3 V-8, drawing 15 ml / 1 Tbs of oil every 1250 miles, 2011 kms. If the car were a DD, putting down 10K mi / 16K km a year, that measures out to as much as 1/2 cup, 236 ml a year. I prefer to keep all that out of the intake system.

I was drawing the same amount (1 tbsp) for every hour of track time (mostly 2nd and 3rd gears >5000 rpm) on a 10k-20k miles Gen 3.
I'm getting a passenger side UPR can for my 2024 for sure.

Not exactly sure, slight grey area. They actually ‘recommend’ one in the owners manual, however the recommendation is in the ‘track use’ section.
