pcv/catch can issue help! I took off the catch can and realized it was full of oil/water and looked alittle milky, also noticed same with top of oil dipstick, oil cap lid,changed oil it was fine but i am thinking the catch can routing/pcv routing isnt good since this is occuring still after the oil change. HELP!
- Driver's side valve cover is vented on the rear port
- Passenger side valve cover has OEM Oil Cap
- Passenger side valve cover port (by the front) is vented.
- Catch can is connected to valley cover port under intake manifold which routes into the catch can and an open end on the catch can which used to be the part that plugged into the tb
- TB port is capped.
i have the non vented james biz catch can the way the connections were on the can when i was na i had one into the throttle body plugged and the other in the inake valley,but when i had the procharger put on was adv that i would not want to run it how it was and i got the car back with lines running how they are and the passenger side has a filter on it

looking at the procharger manual, the way they have it is without a catch can with tb plugged and valve cover plugged the way im thinking the port that is on the valve cover should i plug that into the catch can with how i am running it and plug the valve cover vent? is that the way it should be routed? the way it is with everything open causing the pcv to not work?
Thanks
