Oil seperator / catch can for the R

[signalbobby]

I just tried again and was able to get it. I used two mini right angle picks, stubby flat head and used my phone camera as a mirror so I could see where I was prying. I actually started with the intake one, blind side first and then did the single one and it popped right off. After I was able rotate the hose and got the other one.

What did the aftermath look like of the hose and clips?

Not bad actually but for anyone doing this install in the future, order yourself one of these quick disconnect tools to help get the tubes off the clean side. Should be 5/8”

I am new to the catch can on the supercharged engines. I have read this post and plan on using the UPR product. My question is, with the engine having 9K miles on it, is there any concern with the oil that may have already been collected by the supercharger. I assume not but wanted to ask. Thanks for your input.

Anything possible, you wouldn’t know unless you removed it and inspected it. No doubt there is some in there but how much would depends on the actual engine, usage etc.

Just put my UPR on....just about easiest install ever.



So does anyone know the purpose of this piece which has a threaded hole in it? Only thing I can think of is to add stability as it wedges against the battery box.



And I am always surprised by all the tape used during truck assembly that never holds. Found all this tape hanging off various places in the passenger-side engine bay. The green cap was sitting on the passenger-side valve cover just wedged between couple of wires....could not find any where it is supposed to go. Any ideas?

Just put mine on and I agree, very easy install. I agree on that threaded piece, stability is about the only purpose. Unless it is used on other vehicles for mounting and just a universal piece.

Typically these tape remnants are left from the harness assembly. They are normally found at support points or connector connections. Caps are used to protect sensitive equipment from static and EMI damage until fully installed.

I just drained my catch can for the first time...about 2000ish miles..gosh I was surprised how much oil came out. Probably 2 ounces.

 

[WMRaptor]

Same mine gets a good amount every 5k miles. About half the 40 percent of the bottom of the can.

Anyone running the Ford Performance oil separator happen to look and see if theirs much oil film in the outlet line?
Looking to get the FP one as it should work in the cold as sits on the valve cover.
Thanks
