Look here for help first!I few months ago I did the first oil change after installing the catch can. I was greatly shocked by what I found. I was expecting a bit of sludge and and condensation but what I got was a bit disturbing.
1st off, no, I don't have a blown head gasket. All that water is moisture collected through the carb intake and crank case.
Just figured I'd share my results. 3,200 miles, 1.25 cups of water and 52cc of sludge.

Re: Oil catch can for a Weber set up
Disturbing indeed! Much short trip driving? I could just imagine the yuck I could produce with my 2 mile drive to work, especially in the winter.
Might be another mod in the near future. For now I've just been using 1000k(give or take a few hundred miles) oil change interval.
