Possible Change needed in BSH Catch Can setup
« on: October 14, 2009, 09:10:37 am »
Hmmmmm!

Just read this on golfmkv from Phil at BSH:

Quote from: Phil@BSH;2039370
On the later cans the right most valve cover plate fitting should go to the side of the can, the left most valve cover fitting should go to the top.

This is the opposite of what is stated in the instructions on BSH's website which use the older version of the catch can.

http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2039370#post2039370

I will send Phil an email and get confirmation on this.

Knew there was a reason why I have not even fitted mine yet - all still sealed up as delivered. Might consider selling mine (brand new) and look for something else.

If I'm reading this right, this is not good!

I'm literally (tomorrow) about to pay for braided hoses to replace the ones that now aren't long enough if I am to correct the 'righthand-hose-to-top-of-can' as originally isntructed but fitted other way around which I'm now being told is correct.

All very confusing and reflects badly on BSH methinks, or have I got completely the wrong end of the stick?

i think this just reflects badly on many keybaord warriors who just get a new mod to there car because everyone on the forum has got it  :scared:

BSH are a great reputable company im sure they wouldnt intentionally mis guide any one..

im with gazbuts3 and stevep on this one. mine has been fitted as per guidance instructions and recomendations on here and i have collected plenty of juice with no issues as of yet.

if anything i have collected much more than i had envisaged i would. and will probably empty mine at lease every two weeks i think.

i noticed on mine when i took it off that the top elbow was half the internal diameter due to mayo build up, after a week i thought this wasnt good so decided to sell. maybe that was why, but i found the condensation was starting to emulsify in the pipe before it got to the can.
