Constructed from black-coated 6061 aluminum with M16 x 1.5 inlet and outlet threads, the PQY catch can provides a durable, serviceable solution for engines that suffer from crankcase ventilation oil carryover. The baffled interior and bronze filter work together to condense and collect oil before it reaches sensitive components, helping maintain cleaner intake surfaces and more consistent combustion conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this catch can reduce oil contamination in the intake?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit forces vapors through a baffled chamber and a 50‑micron bronze filter that separates oil droplets from the airflow. Collected oil accumulates in the lower reservoir instead of entering the intake, keeping intercoolers and intake valves cleaner over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBaffle geometry slows and separates oil-laden vapors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e50‑micron bronze element traps fine oil particles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSealed body routes cleaned crankcase ventilation back to intake or atmosphere as needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the PQY catch can easy to install and service?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The compact cylinder and standard M16 x 1.5 inlet\/outlet threads make it compatible with many factory PCV systems and simple to mount in constrained spaces.

It fits many vehicles that have space for a small inline reservoir and are compatible with M16 x 1.5 fittings. Ideal for turbocharged and high-mileage engines where oil vapors are a concern, this kit appeals to owners who prefer a straightforward, serviceable solution rather than complex filtration setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Will this fit my car's PCV system?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: The PQY catch can uses M16 x 1.5 ports and a compact body; confirm clearance and thread compatibility with your vehicle before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: How often do I need to empty it?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Drain frequency depends on driving and oil consumption; check monthly or during routine maintenance and empty via the built-in valve as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"PQY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48084428718238,"sku":"B07ZCSZR2R","price":34.84,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/2041\/9486\/files\/pqy-front-view-black-catch-can.jpg?v=1785854960","url":"https:\/\/northtrailauto.ca\/products\/pqy-2-port-baffled-oil-catch-can-black-6061-aluminum-50-micron-bronze-filter-drain-valve","provider":"North Trail Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
