Mishimoto catch can on EB - is this normal?

[Monty]

Checked mine after 6000 miles - only a very small amount in there. Could see oil in the can but wasn't enough to even dribble out.

Anyone else have this fitted and checked their's?

Also couldn't unscrew the f***ing thing. There's a nut at the bottom you can undo, but the whole thing seems to unscrew in the pictures on the internet. Should have checked this before fitting I suppose!

It's a bit of a fiddly fucker to remove, need to hold the hold and then twist the bolt.

Catch can intake depends on driving style, miles, weather, etc etc. I'll take mine out in a month and see what mine looks like.

I find you need to remove it from the tower to unscrew it, my first check was after 4500 mile and there was 16ml in there. Did 2nd check after about another 5000 mile and the amount was roughly the same, looked like s**t though

Mine's caught about an inch depth after 3000 miles, although I tend to make mostly short journeys. Liquid appears to be mostly brown water, which smells of petrol and a tiny bit of oily gunk at the bottom.

I kept forgetting which way to twist the can to open it, so ended​ up each time unbolting it from the bracket. Eventually resorted to putting a sticker on it.

You guys have loads more gunk than mine - does driving style make a huge difference? I'm a bit of a 'driving miss daisy' most of the time personally.
