Does anyone run a catch can off the passenger side valve cover.I seem to have excessive oil being sucked into the intake on this side.Took off the hose going into the air intake from valve cover and it was oily inside.Thanks all.

Oily film is typical.

Under WOT there is no vacuum but there is blowby gasses. With no manifold vacuum to suck them out via the PCV valve, the gasses flow back out of the tube into the intake to be sucked into the motor.

The PCV & Breather system ensures that unburnt hydrocarbons get injested at all times.

How many miles does your car have?
