Default lookin for a cheap catch can?

I'm not affiliated with this guy at all, but I remember a while back when I found a fairly cheap one, ppl were going crazy asking where I found it. well, I found some more on ebay, but even cheaper than teh last one. I plan to buy one form this guy.

by the way, I was looking for catch cans to fix my pcv problem on the crx....

Catch cans arent worth it to me though

my rear main seal blew out and I had a leaky front main and rear main before the rear main blew. I'm pretty sure its bc of the positive crank case pressure during boost. a catch can will get rid of that for me.

Works out to 30 shipped to Canada, still not too bad. I might pick one up and give it a try.

this one either ends soon or is already over. but search for 'catch can' and sort by lowest price first and you'll see all of his auctions for them. I will buy one next week.

That picture shows both hoses connected to motor. Pressure will still build. That is a waste of time. One outlet has to be vented or recirc'd to the intake.

I just threw a filter on the valve cover and routed a vacuum line form the black box on the back of the block and pointed it to the ground, both open, no pressure (its a sohc btw) and it was FREEEEEEE!!!! maybe 15 cents for vac line
