Before i go back and have my car finished, I need to address a couple of issues. 1. The o2's, easy fix, bosch 13111's, one of them wouldnt even work. 2. I have blowby, i think it was cylinder #4. I have been looking at catchcans and wondering if this would address the issue. Or, should i eliminate the pcv all together? I am almost sure there is some sludge in the intake. I am probably goin to pull it before i go back. I am getting some ping at high rpms, detonation, which can cause the pcm to pull timing and dump fuel. And oil in there can give false a/f readings. I have also been looking at crankcase evac kits, which seems to be the best alternative. With one of these there will be no chance of oil going back into the intake. It could be bad valve seals, or rings. I am gonna assume its not the valve seals cause they were just replaced when i did the cam. Could be the rings, i am gonna hope its not for the time being. Anyone know of any disadvantages to eliminating the pcv? What about you hilton? Your are the only one i know with a can, so i assume you know something about the subject. What are your thoughts on the evac kit? I am getting some knock retard. This could be caused by the oil on the plugs that i am getting. Or even the exhaust hitting somewhere. So i am trying to eliminate the oil on the plugs and working on the exhaust to go and get my car finished. He said it was reverting to the lower octane tables and pulling timing. What are your thoughts on this? Know anything on this subject?

Hey Chris i have a oil catch can u can use. It didnt really seem to catch any oil or my car didnt really shoot any out but your welcome to try it. I tried it two ways i took off the pcv valve off and it seemed to drop the oil pressure dont now why so i put it back on.

This is the first time i have had issues with this stuff so i am still learning about this. If i use a catchcan dont i need to get a breather for the filler neck? Or does it matter? I am guessing the can just goes inline after the pcv valve? Or how does it work? What about an evac system?
