Hello There,
Are there any gurus out there that know about engine crankcase and fuel tank ventilation and recycling systems?
Apparently, with my blown motor, the engine bay can become coated with oil from the engine breathers, due to blow-by, so an oil catch can is necessary. The catch can should recycle into the motor, as should the vent from the EVAP system charcoal canister. In my car they are located alongside each other.
I'm hesitant to mix fuel and oil / fuel vent streams into a single vacuum line, but as they both go into the motor, albeit usually separately, can this be done?
Where should the connections at the motor be located? I have a convenient location on the inlet manifold between the throttle bodies (blanked off in image), rather than into the air filters. Is this acceptable?
Does anyone know if this has been done before?
I'm currently researching, but any help appreciated. I can provide more detailed descriptions and images if required.
Cheers,
Lance
