Yes, this is a direct injection motor and we don't have fuel injectors spraying the backsides of our intake valves off to keep them clean, but this isn't a race motor with loose rings and 20+ pounds of boost creating excessive blowby necessitating a catch can.

Yes, that **** looks like ****, but it's not hurting your motor.

I don't see you over there moaning about these guys nosediving their gas mileage by dropping THOUSANDS of dollars on useless lift kits and massive tires for rigs that never go offroad? Instead you'd rather spew ignorance on a $300 catch can that helps an engine burn cleaner? Give me a break.leave the OP alone.

Thanks for your opinion. I'm glad that you know my truck better than me and feel that I do not understand statistical analysis or placebo effect.


I can say that statistically I have better gas mileage and improved idle on my ecoboost. However, that is not why I purchased the can. I purchased it to reduce the rising oil problem, help with shudder and protect the valve necks from buildup.

A catch can is not going to help you with a "rising oil problem". If your oil is rising, it's caused by fuel dilution which is an issue a catch can is not even remotely designed to address. The fluid that this catch can is catching is on it's way to being completely combusted and will not even come close to entering your oilpan...
