Ccv Mod Stinks!
I love the gleaming interior of my engine compartment since i did the ccv mod but......
i want to get rid of the blow-by pouring out of my ccv mod. I read a while ago about an otc canister set-up (ford product i think) that mounts on the frame rail and rids the oil from the fumes and then fumes travel back up to the intake. I believe it even had a drain plug on it to drain the oil out if it at certain intervals. Im pretty sure this one ended up being FTE approved being it was especially made for our trucks. Does it exist?
Since i cut/ filed down the plastic piece on the inside of the air intake to do the ccv mod will this be an issue when hooking the canister set-up on to my truck? I belive that plastic piece formed something like the venturi effect on the ccv gases flowing in the intake track.

Here is a site on donaldson's spiracle ccv filter, i just found. I dont know the price yet but i will get back to you'all on that. I havent seen any posts on it yet so i hope im not re-opening any old cans of worms. It seems like they are using it to counter act californias high emissions standards. Im only concerned with never smelling the crap again.

I may try building a different canister filter and recirculate back into the original intake manifold connector this winter.

BTW, thank you for maintaining that excellent web page of repair and maintainance procedures. It's world class.
