Oil Catch Can - Surprised By Results

[BlaineBug]

What's in it? I don't know, it's a mystery. - VGG

No clue - Want to give my lifters a fighting chance!

I'm right there with you. I have a Range AFM in my Denali and also change out the oil at 5K miles with a bottle of Rislone. I have an extended warranty on the truck too, but I'm a firm believer in over maintaining my rides.

The quote I was referencing was for the Vice Grip Garage fans. That feller cracks me up.

I do not have any Range AFM, however if you ever have a warranty claim, make sure no one knows about that aftermarket device (I inspect warranty claims daily!)

Whenever I do have leave it for service the device gets unplugged and comes home with me.

Just drained again, can't say how full the can was due to the stainless scrubber but it was at least somewhat full of oil. No oily/watery mix. Just oil. However when I check my oil level in the pan, it is still full!

This is what I found in the catch can after about 1,500 miles. 1,200-1,300 of which was pulling a fully loaded U-Haul trailer on a recent cross-country move.

That is inline with what mine catches, 2019 Suburban 5.3. I run a large can mounted off the radiator core support. I will get the milkshake in the winter months here in Illinois.

I was going to say that I thought it is excessive for oil consumption, considering that none of it is condensation/water/milkshake. This 0w20 oil is as thin as water. I'm thinking next time I'm going to use 5w30 from here on out.
