IMPORTANT INFO - Regarding Oil on ours Engines thru the PCV
IMPORTANT INFO - Regarding Oil on ours Engines thru the PCV
I have been looking at my engine and looking at ALL modifications to fix the oil on the plenum and throttle body.
I JUST NOTICED SOMETHING
Every solution, protects the plenum and throttle body from getting oil.
but there's a T, before the plenum.
Were does that Hose goes? down to the intercooler?
it should go to somewere.. it does go to somewere. i dont know were but?
if so?
even with an oil separator or a dime in the upper plenum hose connection, that hose will still get OIL!!!
I have been reading a couple of days looking for the right solution but i dont find anything that solves fully this.
!! I am more concerned of getting oil out of the intercooler, rather than in the boot or Tb. !!
Please Advise

So diverting it with something LIKE the swanson kit or dime mod will send the oil past the intercooler does not clog the intake or intercooler with oil.
The hose that Tees off goes to the lower intake. Even though it looks like a large hose, the fitting into the manifold, is a tiny metered orifice. I am not exactly sure why Ford put that there, but I can say that I disconnected it on my truck once, and the truck decellerated really weird after that, so I hooked it back up. If you block off the PCV, the air will still recirc into the intake as originally designed. BUT, if there is already oil in the lower intake, that may be sucked back into the intake as well, in a cycle. But you wouldn't get any new oil injested once the PCV is blocked off.
IGNORE THE HIGH LIGHTED AREA'S
(that was to show someone something a while ago)

I totally give up on this, way too many opinions and fixes,
I know this:
I had a Breather, and dumped it
I had a Seperator, and dumped it
I had a Check Valve to prevent incoming air, and dumped it
I've never added one single ioda of oil to my L since
the day I bought it (over two years ago).
My intercooler was spotless when I checked it weeks ago
just shy of 13 K
(So How Much Oil Am I Really Sucking ???)

I run hi Boost, hi HP, hi timing, + 75 hp of nitrous.
I drive it hard, I race it, bla bla bla
it use to have a major oil sucking problem
now it don't
The only oil Mod I have (which seemed to eliminate 90%+) is
