With a 300ml capacity, M16x1.5 inlet\/outlet threads, and a baffled internal design, it separates oil mist from blow-by gases and stores condensate for periodic draining. The kit includes a 0.8m (2.6ft) hose with 3\/8\" inner diameter and provides the option to run the can as a sealed inline unit for PCV systems or as a vented unit using the supplied breather filter for pre-PCV setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the EVIL ENERGY catch can reduce oil in the intake?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe baffled interior slows incoming crankcase gases so oil droplets coalesce and run down into the reservoir instead of traveling into the intake tract. Removing that oil-laden vapor helps keep intake valves and intake tract surfaces cleaner over time. It doesn’t change factory PCV behavior when installed inline; instead, it intercepts and stores contaminants before they reach the intake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBaffled core design increases separation efficiency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e300ml reservoir holds condensate between service intervals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDetachable breather option lets you vent to atmosphere on pre-PCV engines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInline installation available for sealed PCV systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this catch can fit my vehicle and what do I need to check?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit is universal but not one-size-fits-all: confirm hose inner diameter, thread type, and mounting space before purchasing.

In regions where temperatures reach freezing or lower, condensed moisture can increase and risk freezing in the crank vent—frequent cleaning or temporarily returning to the OEM PCV routing may be necessary.
