Catch Can @ 30K

[Rawyzf]

They benefit non-GDI motors as well. The intake on my Firebird (LS1) was saturated on the inside after 24k miles. Installed a can when I swapped cams and would drain some every oil change. The LS2 in my Trailblazer SS pushed out even more.

I had a 9-7x Aero with the Ls2. I recognize your name from TBSS Owners.

 

It's a small world, car enthusiasts always cross paths.

I never used seafood or any intake/valve cleaner on those vehicles.

If i lived in a area that got real bad winters and moisture in the fuel/oil systems i could see using one.

Or possibly your phone auto corrected and you didn't catch it. I don't see any edit history on it

[AZ_SS]

Naw, i was joking, i must have typed it in wrong. I have auto correct turned off.

Fish oil is supposed to be good for removing cholesterol build up...might work for valve cleaning too

It can't hurt anything. If you plan on keeping your truck for a long time and rack the miles, like to 200k it would help keep things cleaner.

Is it worth adding a catch can at 30K or has that ship sailed? I have used sea foam, was going to continue using the sea foam every other oil change. I have not seen anyone complaining of valve issues on this forum. So is it worth the $ to add a catch can at this point?

Are you willing to sacrifice your warranty for a catch can? GM will void your warranty if you install one. You still have 70k miles left of warranty. I wouldn't do it - especially considering nobody has proven that a catch can actually stops anything from happening on these engines. The valves still coke even with a catch can. Snake oil...
