I’ve had my catch can on for 1,500+ miles now and it has caught barely any oil.
Just enough to pour a little bit out. (can on the dirty side only)

Surprised by how much it caught.

How many miles are on that oil?

That pic makes me happy I’m leaving my OEM oil separator system intact on my Lobo.

“The Maverick Lobo oil separator (part of the 2.0L EcoBoost engine's PCV system) collects oil vapors from crankcase blow-by, condensing them into liquid form via baffles and filters within the valve cover assembly. The separated oil drains back into the engine's oil sump through internal passages, where it mixes with and recirculates as part of the standard engine lubrication system. This design prevents oil from entering the intake tract while allowing the oil to remain usable, avoiding the need for external draining or disposal (unlike aftermarket oil catch cans)“

So !
Are you guys saying you found out after installing it you didn’t need it ?
Looks like that from this end.
