I like turtles.

Your posts continue to mystify me, how do you function in life?

What does the ridiculous catch can garbage have to do with this guy hydrolocking his motor due to a stuck injector?

This thread is not about the catch can, take that to its own dedicated thread.

My can only condenses crankcase vapors that go the fresh air side to the driver side turbo and CAC thus they do not exit the drain hole in the CAC. U can believe what You want to believe. I Know what it is. 200 cc's while running thru the rain all day. Near 1/5 of a qt. has any one bent / broken a rod/ hydrolocked after drilling ? I have proven to myself what it is by canning only the fresh air side while the pcv side stays OEM.

So your catch can will suck raw gas from inside the cylinder and protect from windowing the block????? Ford says such injector. Makes sense to me.

I ramble sometimes too

I try not to mix that with my drinking!

There would have been a fire. Rember the GM ign switch or faulty air bags. Blow a hole thru a piston an snap a rod blowing gas all over and there is going to be a kaboom. No fire at the exit of the block. Thats where the glass full of raw gas would have immediately went. An a fire. The Red hot exhaust is only inches away.

Doesn't look like there was a fire, but I also don't see anything in that post about blowing holes through the pistons. He said the rod snapped. For all we know the piston stayed in the cylinder along with most of the gas. Why do you think there is a hole in the piston?

EDIT: Sorry for continuing the derailing of this thread. I just wondered at the conclusions being drawn from a simple statement about a broken rod.

Your ridiculous posts make me want to kick puppies. I seriously think you drink the mixture you catch in your catch can.

A question about any known occurrences of injector failure came up & I thought the information shared was relevant to the question. That is all. I had no idea it would cause you wander off like this.

Anyway, let's now return to the original Thread premise, "Ecoboost condensate drain hole, post your results here", & if you haven't noticed already, this is not the place to keep bringing up your catch can. There is another Thread for that.
