I did not know this existed. Very interesting. It's almost like the OEMs are admitting their engines have nasty blowby.
I'll be honest here, I don't know why the EPA will not allow the car manufacturers to have blowby be sucked (via the venturi effect) into the exhaust gas (pre cat) where it will flame off and go out the tailpipe as pollution. It's really no different than now where the blowby just gets sucked/blown into the intake, burns there and becomes pollution elsewhere. Difference? Method #2 causes detonation, pooling of oil in intake manifolds and intercoolers, and on DFI engines, it causes the back of the valves to get buildup.
No performance mods yet. I just striped, tinted, ppf, steeda jacking rails, rokblokz mudguards, steeda clutch spring and perch and oil separator.
Because it's hard on cats to have things still burning on the way out. And the higher combustion temps in the chamber do a much better job incinerating the mixture. We have to do the same concept with "tail gas" in the biogas industry. Simply sending it through a regular burner doesn't do the job.
The 2 biggest offenders are CH4 and H2S. The others are mostly benign, but still contaminants we want to remove (nitrogen, water, etc). All that crap (pun intended) is fed into a special piece of equipment that has a minimum ignition of 1500F to make sure it doesn't get into the atmosphere.
Walmart has it. The specification was changed because direct injected cars get cruddy intake valve stems unless the oil has detergents to keep them clean. It’s an issue with the EcoBoost engines but not the Coyote because it has direct injection and port injection at each cylinder. The port injector keeps the valve stems clean, but to not violate your warranty, I’d use the new spec oil.
Thank you! Appreciate it. Is this a Walmart in Canada and what brand of oil?
Mobil 1 Annual Protection sold in U.S. Walmart’s. I have no info on Canadian Walmart stores. Sorry.
