Does it matter that the catch can connections are higher than connection on the motor... Meaning that the oil/water has to be forced uphill into the catch can?
No. It’s not moving a fluid. It’s moving air that is laced with oil from the engine block. That air is moved across material inside to cause the oil to accumulate and get captured.

No the crankcase pressure is pushing it out of the outlet side and the intake is drawing the clean air back in. It's pretty level actually, anyway.

I’m scratching my head, after 2000 miles, I’ve not had any residue drain out. I’ve seen guys getting a bunch of fluid, I’ve got zilch!

I can't say that I'm surprised. This can looks like a beautiful unit, but it does not attach at the proper location. See the new release from JLT, they have the location correct. I tried to point it out in this very thread a good while ago and was dismissed almost immediately.

Yes I see a totally different mounting and connection. @Buschur can you weigh in? Thanks

I haven't had a drop come out of my Buschurs can after 4000 miles. 🤔 $279 is a lot of $$. Can I get a refund?

This is a pic posted not long ago of crap that came out of a customers can using our kit.

The JLT is using the block location which none of that vapor passes through the intake, intercooler plumbing or intercooler. I've stated multiple times the #1 main goal of the catch can is to eliminate the oil vapor/contamination in the intercooler itself which further destroys the horrible efficiency of it, even when it's clean and new.

The vapor through the PVC is doesn't pass through the air intake tract, the intercooler plumbing, turbo and intercooler.

So correct, my stance hasn't changed as the design of our product is for performance and keeping the vapors out of the intercooler.

Thank you. Now with respect to not seeing and fluid yet, is it my driving style? Are there other factors I should be considering? Note, I'm not criticizing, just looking to learn.

Of course it's your fault, not the mfg's. You have to drive it like it's a hellcat you just stole and the police are on your tail to possibly see any benefit from this can's placement. 99% of Maverick owners won't drive it that way though. But you were promised safety and longevity so you bought right in, as have many others.

The can on our truck, which has unfortunately sat here for way to long taken apart for more parts development, has had some crap drained each time we've checked it. Why yours has stayed dry I don't have an explanation for. As anyone can see by simply looking, the valve cover to the intake is a clear one shot path, the intake is 100% of the time under vacuum, so it is constantly drawing pressure/vapors from the engine. The PVC location draws only under cruise, the PVC closes at WOT, it's a one way check valve. The oil from the PVC location is of very little concern to me from a performance stand point as that vapor/oil never makes it to the intercooler.

As a side note, also note our truck has been on the dyno for extended periods of time, hauling truck beds of engines to the machine shop and towing my trailer, so it is under load a lot. However, back to the statement, regardless, the intake is constantly drawing a vacuum to the valve cover, like Ford intended it, but now with a can/filter.

Oil catch can update:
I installed the oil catch can around 1,100 miles. As of today I have 4245 miles on the vehicle. That is a little over 3000 miles driven with the catch can. I didn't catch a lot but I can say some gunk and water were catched. It is some gunk that did not made it thru.
Thanks @Buschur for a great product. $279 well spent to protect my truck 🙂👍

Perhaps it's like insurance, you pay for it but hope you never need it. I traded a 2013 2.0 Escape for the Maverick. It had over 130k on it. It ran great and was very reliable but leaked oil from just about everywhere. Back then I had not heard of an oil can🤔Maybe if were more throttle aggressive I would realize the benefits.

There are more variables at play here. Some may benefit, others may not.
