Motion Raceworks PCV Catch Can Water

[DougS550]

Just thought I would mension and give my feedback on Motion Raceworks Atmospheric PCV Vent Catch Can. Even at 15lbs boost the only thing caught in the Can is pure clear water. Generated by the heat of my crankcase, E85 and air intake. It's so close to neutral crank case ventilation that I haven't seen one drop of oil, just moisture vapor. My other PCV vent sucked allot of oil into my TB and blower which coated the blower screws with oil which I did not like. My engine oil looks pure but, I will do another oil analysis in a couple of months to make sure everything is wearing normal.

That's all my Motion Raceworks CC gets in it. Water that smells like alcohol. Not sure if that's good or bad.

They said that's normal. I am actually glad it catches the water vapor

Yeah that's completely normal especially when boosted and on E85, you don't want any of that stuff recirculating back into your intake.

I'm glad I'm not sucking it back into the TB

Water and moisture is totally normal to find in catch cans. It exists in the hot air in the engine and condenses in the can as the air cools. Its all a function of having a catch can instead of the standard PCV system. Especially if you are VTA.
