I have been reading about installing oil catch cans on the ECO Boost engines to prevent oil carryover that will stop carbon buildup on the valve train. Has anyone done this to their Bronco Raptor? Is this something that should be done?

Thanks

Thanks for the info so it sounds like oil carry over is not a problem with the 3.0 Ecoboost engine?
I don't know, everyone swears by them which is why I bought one but my experience hasn't shown much. Maybe I will see more when winter comes as I am located in WI.

I did both sides and in summer empty every oil change, mainly one side has 1/2 or so in bottom of cup. But in winter if I drive just short distances need to empty more often because fills up with moisture.

How much is in there at every oil change? Mine literally has residue at best.

It depends how I drive it. Back and forth to work and not playing, enough to cover the bottom. Running it hard in the dunes or off road, get around 1/2 inch of just oil.
