I did this as a photo just to post. It will be back to stock very shortly. With my EGR off (EGR turned down via Vag-Com & vaccum hose plugged with a BB), and this configuration of the CCV shown, is there any issue that I should be aware of, besides breathing in oil fumes. (I am driving around with this setup for a few days, just to see if I get any oil in the "catch can")
The CCV Intake port is plugged and the elephant hose is going to a "catch can" which is just a oil quart bottle next to the windshield washer resivoir. There are air gaps in the hose/bottle connection for ventilation/pressure release. So over time my "catch can" should start to have oil in it, right?
Also, if I did this with a more appropriate setup, would the remaining sludge in the intake manifold dry up and possibly flake off and harm the engine components?
This is only a test. I don't need pro-environment people chewing my head off. Thanks as I await comments.
