erattic idle, what is a pcv and where is it?

<< < (3/3)

KRL:
I've not noticed any difference.  I think you will probably only notice a difference if your PCV was already on its way out.

Anyone on here experience better running / boost pressure / idle after installing the Forge or BSH PCV fix?

i noticed better fuel economy by about 2bhp, but i think my PCV was broke before i fitted it. plus you should see the amount of crap that comes out of it. I empty fortnightly and loads of stuff comes out

How often you have to top back up now?

KRL:
I've had my catch can installed for about 2k miles now.  I empty it weekly and am getting about 3 floz per 350 miles out of it.

Oil top up wise its looking fine, not had to top up at all yet.
