Which catch can for Bam engine 1,8t

[scottbmxer]

Following up from my last thread about my pcv that split im now looking at purchasing a oil catch can to replace it! Ive already ordered the hose and fittings and need a catch can!

Which catch can would be best ?


This one with 19 - 15mm reducer near the tank?

This one with 19mm inlet and outlet -

Only problem is the first one would be easy to baffle yourself but the second one I might be able to shuv a bit of brillo pad in hte inlets? lol

id go for the 19mm one the drain on the bottom will allow you to get some stuff in there to baffle it

Yeah thats what I was thinking azza! The 19mm inlet might give me more room to do it tho

Its iver that or would I be better off spending another £70 on this - http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/300994517941?nav=SEARCH

its alot of extra money for baffles even buying the cheap one im sure somewhere would cut the bottom off and reweld for a cheeky queens heed

[scottbmxer]

I was planning to sqeeze some brillo pad in there through the inlets or drain hole

Have you fitted it n decided to baffle it coz it's not doing anything? I was gonna see how I get on without baffling it

Yea I'm not 100% if it's doing what it should to be honest Iv had it in for a couple of weeks but nothing in the can, and seeing the state of the old hoses I'm a little surprised theirs nothing in there yet

saikou michi catch can is the one to buy.

Only thing I dont like about them is the fact there is no level indicator! Also they are pricey

 

[xDaNx]

I've got one of those Saikou ones for sale, pm me if interested

 

[leegreenaway]

Just bought one similar for £25 quid....level indicator, 19mm inlets/outlets, magnetic drain plug etc etc.
I'll probably stuff some brillow pads (steel wool) in as a baffle. At the end of the day they'll all do the same as the saikou ones.

What I don't like about the saikou ones is you can't get to the baffle to clean or replace it I don't think. That and the £100 price tag!
