i just did this tonight. i gutted the air filter out of the top of the husky air compressor catch can and siloconed the butterfly valve on the bottom of the resivor becuase it leaked. Looks good and should work great. I just ditched the engine cover. Don't really need it anyways. Looking down into the intake seemed like it was pretty oily.

Well, the short section of blue tubing i have must be the problem. I never did check it for collapsing under throttle, but I reset the code with my scanner, and it came back on that same day. I took everything off, and haven't got a code since. In the brief amount of time that I had the catch can on, I did catch some oil, so it definately works. I just need to cut the stock hose I guess and mount the filter inline.

yes, i'm sure. and the blue hose was actually one that came with a different eBay catch can. when i had that installed, it threw the same code. i had taken it off and put it away for a while until i saw this thread and tried the husky.

I am surprised so many people report finding oil in there... Are these high mileage or FI engines?
We just put a K&N breather on the end of the stock hose, zip-tied it up near the cowl, still perfectly clean.

after about 100 miles I have very little oil but do have a little bit in it. My car has 57,500 miles. I have been driving really easy too. I guess the harder you drive it the more its going to spew.

I had put about 300 miles on it before I removed it. It had some oil, but very little. Not nearly enough to have to drain it. I have about 80K miles on the car.
