The "Catch Can" Explained - By Elite Engineering

[ToesonTheNose]

on my 5'3  the throttle body bard is below.   this video right here is my exact truck and he installs the center line of his can to the throttle body and the non-center to the side of the motor .  which was how I originally did it and now its opposite

Just to be clear, the throttle body barb should be near the top right (as you look from the front to back)

No on my 5'3  the throttle body barb is underneath the throttle body  this vide is identical to what I had before I swtiched, you will see he installed the center of the can line to the TB amd the non center to the side of the motor

And if you look closely below the screwdriver you can see the dirty out to the center port of the can.

Yeah I have a port below my TB which is back to the center line and the other port is where I’m pointing.  I’m hoping that the can wasn’t tight and that threw the code

Yep, you had it right, I hope it was just a vacuum leak. Still feel like I sent you on a wild goose chase.

Great choice! Just installed another one on a 6.2L. Man such great looking pieces.

 

After one tank of gas at approximately 300 miles (truck has 1500 miles) I drained and collected 0.02 quarts (just a little over 1/2 ounce) of condensation, some oil, etc.

I just ordered the dual valve kit with a CSS from UPR as well. I’m going to run a can of CRC GDI valve cleaner through the intake after the install for good measure.
