Should I fit a Catch Can and What the Hell is EGR?

- PLEASE NOTE* Catch cans are a band-aid fix to a much bigger issue and are not the solution. While they remove a lot of oil from the recirculated air, they do not offer a 100% fix and nor do they resolve the original issue.

Courtesy of the 4JX1 - decompile / learning project page and my son Rob, I was told about an eBay store that is helping support our community. The original post was from Jimmy Steel.

I have just bought a set of filters for my 4JX1 from him and saved around $20 partly off the overall cost and free postage. Please give this person some support if you are in the market for 4JX1 filters etc.

Don't be fooled by the company name, they sell numerous other things as well as shelving. The two young men are friendly and extremely helpful and it was a pleasure dealing with them both. I can thoroughly recommend them, if you are looking for workshop items, give them a try. You can visit them at Noble Park or they will send anything by mail Australia wide.

Lots of good info on this channel.
Catch can ? That hump at the rear of the rocker cover appears to be a de-facto 'catch can'.
It has an internal baffle designed to stop/reduce oil being mixed into the blowby gasses that are then returned to the intake system.
A few years ago I noticed my Junky was pumping a bit too much black smoke on hard accel.
Hmm, what going on here ?
Block vac line to EGR valve = stop EGR valve from working.
Result NO MORE black smoke and intercooler pipes internally cleaner :)
EGR reduces emissions with definite long term coking of intake system.
Now that is an interesting result because mine was doing that too. Thanks for the info, however, perhaps looking at why the EGR delete has stopped the smoke is a better idea. Resolving the problem instead of hiding it is a much better solution.
I wonder if introducing a manifold diesel injector and flowing a very small amount of deisel continuously might help clean things up a little?
Ben, not sure that diesel has the same cleaning power as petrol
@@thejackaroo4WDcampingchannel You don't want to inject petrol in the intake of a diesel or do you?
@@MiniLuv-1984 Some sort type of vacuum fed intake cleaner drip feed into the pipe from filter housing does not sound that silly, glad I thought of it :)
@@MiniLuv-1984 of course not, but I have seen a video where someone was feeding water into their intakes to clean them

@@thejackaroo4WDcampingchannel Water injection is generally used to cool the intake charge, haven't heard of it being used for cleaning, so thanks for the link Dave.
