So running a hellion sleeper system on a 21 mach 1 6 speed. Usually run it on low boost round 7.5 to 8psi runs fantastic. Sounds great and such. The car is pretty new to me it was tuned by lund too 12.5 psi which requires 50:50 pump and vp110. So i leave it on low boost which is pump and i add a 4oz bottle of boostane. Car runs great pulls hard no smoke lil rich under wot but thats expected on boost nothing crazy even talked to lund bout the afr and he said perfectly how he set it up. Great!

I dont remember ever smelling the oil vapor when i got the car 2 months ago but to be fair i ran it with the AC on cus we had 90+ weather. Now that its cooled down i dont use the ac as much if at all. An at idle i can smell some oil vapor. Not burning any at all the oil has never moved in the 2900 miles ive put on it since it was changed. It does have jlt oil catch cans on both sides vented to atmo and theres never anything in passanger side but ive checked the driver usually only light coating inside most ive ever gotten was maybe 3 drops. Is it normal to smell it when wented to atmo? Ita only when i idle not during cruising nor does the engine smoke at all. 11k on car and 7k on build. Dont usually deal with catch cans vented to atmo hemce asking in case theres something to worry bout. Checked plugs all perfect color no oil. Oil pressure is perfect using 5w30 pennzoil ultra

Completely normal and to be expected. There is actually some risk of smelling it on the hellion kit even if you plumb it the way they direct you to.

Ok just making sure i mean everything is running insanely well, no oil leakage, no oil useage, no smoke, normal oil pressure, power is amazing, catch can has very little to none in it. But being i didnt smell it when i got the car im assumming cus i was using the ac the whole time and now that im not it pulls air from the vent or i have the windows down and the catch cans are vented to the atmosphere thats why i get that faint oil vapor smell here an there. Thanks for responding

Check the valve cover bolts, ford did not install enough on the gen3. Mine came loose early started smelling a little burning after a pull.

Mine is just idling not anything after a pull if anything it smells less haha.
