Anyone experience this with their catch can?
I installed an AMW catch can and afterward I was getting what sounded like a loud vacuum leak. It seems to be coming from the can itself. I cannot find any leaks or holes in any hose. I replaced the PCV and it did not help. Of course,when I pinch the hose going from the can to the throttle body the "leak" disappears.
The problem is this tends to mess with my idle.

Check the petcock (drain-valve) on the bottom, make sure it is tightened. If not that you have a leak with one of the lines.
I have one on both of my cars and they work great.

Yea, the PCV line that comes out of the valve cover goes into the top of the can ,then the line comes out the side of the can and to the throttle body.
Make sure all the hose clamps and the petcock is tight.
