my car started to sputter and stall when i hit traffic lights so i figured it was a clogged cold air intake. so i removed the intake to clean it and i discovered oil in my intake and tb as well as the supercharger. i found out the oil is coming from the hose that attaches to the cold air intake and runs to the back of the motor and connects in to the motor. what could be causing that to happen. oil was just pooling up in my cai and being sucked into the blower. how could i fix this? any suggestions? thanks guys

 

get an oil catch can

 

whats an oil catch can? y is there oil in there to begin with? my car has almost 70k on it and this has never been a issue. i wanna fix the problem itself. i never had an oil catch can and the car ran fine so y would i need one now?

 

that line is there to release crank case pressure and oil will come through it you can stop that but you get an oil catch can so it stops going into your intake you can make a small cheap one with a filter from a air compressor

 

ok so how can i make one or buy one to rid my self of this problem? also does this have any neg effects on my car? meaning is the oil going to **** my car up?

 

i spend under 7 buck on this one

 

^yeah that is what you want to make
search for how to home depot oil catch can on google and you will find what you need to do

 

where did you get that?

 

i got mine from harborfreight as Bl4des said its just an filter from a air compressor

 

you can get it at like home depot or lowes

but i would get barbed fittings not like the ones he has

 

You can do this. Or, there's a cheaper method.

Pull off your TB and intake and clean it out every 10K miles or so. That's what I do. I am also willing to bet that there is a whole **** ton of carbon build up in your throttle body(black stuff). Go to wal mart or any close by auto parts store and buy some throttle body cleaner. Clean out your TB, re-install and results will follow. IMO a catch can is a waste of money.

Never seen that one before. Looks pretty good. And cheap.

 

I have the same idea as that just different brand, works well

 

yea its cheap and it works

 

thanls bl4des, i just did this. got mine from home depot for 20 (air filter, 2 npt taps, 2 clamps) i hop this works. thank you bro

 

Lol, Thats exactly what I did and in the same place too. Works pretty good!

 

Except that the oil also make it's way all over your laminovas and cakes them full of **** as well.

 

I need to do this thanks for showin how is it easy to clean when it gets full?

 

when its full the little mettel nipple on the bottom presses up and the oil should run out.. you can recycle it back into the motor or just dump it ( in a safe place ofcourse lol.)

 

yea it work great and its cheap to buy too
just like nick said,or you could just unscrew the container and empty it and srew it back up

 

Bingo!

 

Got mine off ebay, 20 bucks shipped.


Its on the left.

 

yeah

I cleaned mine yesterday, 65000 miles of buildup on them, they were pretty bad.
