Description

A truck LS spends its life under load, which is exactly when the PCV circuit works hardest.

The Radium Engineering PCV Fluid Lock catch can kit for GM trucks pulls oil and water condensation out of the crankcase gases before they reach the intake manifold. Closed loop, so it does not vent to atmosphere: filtered air routes back to the engine to be burned, keeping it emissions and track legal and keeping oil smell out of the cab.

What You'll Feel

  • An intake manifold that stays clean instead of glazing with oil film
  • Fluid Lock protection: the can cannot overfill and dump contaminants back into the intake
  • A closed system that passes emissions and keeps oil smell out of the cab
  • Easy inspection through the O-ring sealed dipstick

Features

  • Patented Fluid Lock system preventing reservoir overfill
  • 7 fluid ounce can with O-ring sealed dipstick
  • Large 10AN ORB inlet and outlet ports, 4AN ORB drain port
  • 2-step oil separation baffling
  • Vehicle specific anodized mounting bracket

The Details

The PCV hose sees metered vacuum at idle, steady cruise, and deceleration, drawing crankcase vapour, unspent fuel, and oil sludge into the manifold right after a high load run. Towing and hauling make those runs routine, which is why trucks accumulate intake deposits faster than their mileage suggests.

No fixed emptying interval applies: check the dipstick at three to four weeks and set your own schedule. Excessive collection points at the engine rather than the can, whether blowby from wear, an over-full oil level causing windage, or a PCV valve not closing under load.
