ZD30 catch can

[alexx]

Has anyone used a fuel filter as a catch can? Does it serve the purpose? FUel filters are much much cheaper than catch can. Is the filters used in air compressors the one referred to as catch cans?

Thank you.

Sort of, but most here use the Provent 200, these are add ons to help prevent the MAF from getting dirty.
Catch cans are affordable ,cant see why you'd need to use fuel filter type

The important part is to consider which ZD30 Patrol you have as onwards from GU4 version the engines no longer have the hole in the block for the drain to be connected as the previous versions. So in that case the alternative methods of draining the Provent needs to be figured out.

Am about to put a catch can in Thelma. She's an 06. So can someone fill me in on the 'alternative methods'...

Hi i ran my hose in the same position but a bit further
along the chassis and then tapped it

I fab'd my own, using a generic turbo catch can from supacheap. Search me on the WApatrolforum if your interested in how I done it.

Here is my effort --> Run the hose down the mudguard and chassis. Not seen but easily reached.

Get some XF Flacon heater hoses mate. Might be XE. Can’t remember. These are straight hoses which are 13mm - 22mm. Good enough for the Provent can. Works well.

I got the flashlube pro one. A comparison I was reading at the time had the flashlube catching more oil than the provent (at slightly more pressure drop), so that's what I went with.

All fittings and what not can be had from ebay.
