- Fitting a TBF Performance catch can kit on my Abarth Punto evo (1.4L Multiair)
This guide can be followed for both Multiair and the slightly different version of T-Jet Kit.
This is also a rough guide to fitting a catch can to other models of cars and other brands of catch can kits.

Good video
Just one thing to note its important when drilling holes in your car to paint them after as to prevent rust
Very good point. Normally i would, it didn't cross my mind this particular time. 👍
Complimenti ai fatto un bel lavoro
Good job bro! I think the oil catch can must be under the pcv valve so the condensation of oil go easily to it.. what do you think 🤔
Looking for Catchcan for. 1.3t Multiair
Any suggestions where to get can’t find any parts or support
👏👏.
Get used to emptying it though 😂. They collect a lot of condensation
Yeah. Rather that than having it running through the engine. 😬

Yeah I empty mine once a month and it gets about half full
Tks bud
Can you just get rid of it all and have a breather on top while blocking off the other two holes? What benefit/ disadvantages would this have
You can yes and just have a breather on top of rocker cover but the whole point of the catch can is to collect excess condesation and sludge etc from the engine to keep the oil clean.
just running the standard decanter would be more recommended than blocking it all off and catch can better still.
Hope this helps
Besides enviromental reasons is there any benefit from using a catch can instead of the hose just to the floor? I've heard that catchcans due to the need of condensating vapors to turn them liquid make the vapors leave the crancksaft later and can produce backpreasure on the cranksaft. In the other hand by logic I understand that due to the catch can being conected to the admision wich is all the time sucking air can be used as an air extractor compressor for the catch can.
Hi, I can’t find where you got that induction pipe from, you wouldn’t mind telling me please, thank you 😊
Hi.
I got it from tmc motorsport.
Think they have been discontinued from tbf performance so might only be able to get preowned. 👍
hi, i've installed same catchcan to my engine and after few hundred miles i notice that it gets filled with a lot of gunk....condense ,oil and all sorts of stuff. Max i've done is 480 miles and is getting more than half full.....my concern is that all that gunk will enter in my engine .
also i do have a strange missfire when I hit 70 mph on 5th or 6 th gear.... so there might be some entering the engine.....
any advice....do you ever experience anything like this....? Anyone I can seek for advice in london area?
Hi.
That is literally the purpose of a catchcan to catch the gunk and condensation from the engine so that all of that does not recirculate in the engine.
when it starts to fill up there is a drain plug at the bottom for you to empty it then check your oil level each time you empty the can.
some catchcans dont really fill up at all and some need to be drained every couple of weeks.
Hope this helps. 👌
Can I just put a breather on the PCV closest to ignition coil #4 and block off the other one in the back of the engine?
you can. will also need to block off the intake pipe aswell. I personally wouldnt recommend doing this though as the system works on pressure and should really be routed back to the intake either directly, via pcv system or catch can. people have routed from top of crank case to catch can then to atmosphere with no issues but i personally wouldnt.
@@Drivewaybuildz thank you
Hi there,
Do I see that correctly, that the connection that was closed with the cap leads to overpressure? Can you connect a boost pressure indicator there?
Sorry for the English, I had it translated with Google.
I'm doing this mod on my abarth did you encounter any problems deleting the pcv? Great video
Hey mate great video thanks. I need that O ring which perishes, do you know where I can get one from please? Cheers Dan.
Thanks mate.
best place is a fiat/abarth main dealer.
£1 each or something.
say the o-ring under oil segregator. they should find it easily that way 👍
@@DrivewaybuildzWow can't believe how quick you replied. Awesome thanks for your help mate👊
@@Drivewaybuildzi've got this engine in a jeep renegade, do a lot of short journeys in it, would you say it would be beneficial to me to fit a catch can.
@@NDBBDB people would argue that all engines benefit from a catch can. but really the standard setup is just as good.
just maintain it and clean the segregator out like in my previous video.
only when you start tuning and running higher temps etc like on track would i recommend a catchcan.
especially a baffled one which mine is not.
again thats my opinion so others would disagree or agree.
@@Drivewaybuildz that's awesome mate. I appreciate your replies, help and explanation of the catch can. I'll watch your other vid as well on cleaning the segregator cos i've just had it off and not sure if I got into everywhere to clean it properly. Thanks again for your time mate 👍
is there a way to reinstall the engine cover even with the decanter kit?
Yes you can have the engine cover still on if theres enough slack in the pipes.
i have now fitted the engine cover back on a few months ago go tidy the engine bay 👍
@@Drivewaybuildz Thanks for your answer, i own a multiair giulietta and i want to remove the decanter putting the pipe without the catch can, but i don’t want to lose the engine cover👌
Quick question I dropped my coolant about 6 months ago and it's not pink anymore horrible orange colour, would you recommend a full flush again or a new radiator
The coolant normally does go a tinge of orange after a while from heating and cooling. Not anything to worry about unless your car is over heating. 👍
@@Drivewaybuildz thankyou
Hi, can i fit this kit on a Giulietta 1.4 Multiair 125kw ?
Yes it should fit the multiair version. same engine. 👍
@Driveway buildz is there a one-way valve and is it needed?
i am assuming you mean the pcv/breather. its in the black casing on the top of engine i removed. its not necessary if diverting through a catch can. i wouldn't recommend straight from engine back to intake pipe.
@@Drivewaybuildz thanks bro!
Good job nice and tidy, how long until you show what’s in the catch can ?
Thanks buddy. Not for some time to be honest. Hardly getting used at the moment. 😓
