the weirdest thing is my DIY OCT not much oil captured inside, why?

Hi Bro... notworthy.gif

Firstly, how much EO do yu expect 2b collected?
In my case, only abt 3-4 ml was collected in that "fuel filter OCT" over abt 5Km use...mostly city/town driving... wink.gif

Secondly...To which "outlet" did yu connect tube to the OCT?

Facing the car, it shld b the LHS outlet tube @Rocker Cover... ie inbetween PCV tube to inlet manifold... tongue.gif
NB. Officially..that's the RHS... Haha! icon_rolleyes.gif

IINM the other tube is supposedly for air intake juz b4 throttle body to provide clean filtered air into Rocker Cover... rolleyes.gif

However if yu do alot of hi thottle openings (hi revving), then there's possibility of EO fumes being sucked by greater vacuum @ that "air intake" tubing... icon_rolleyes.gif

To prevent that, yu can use a small sp air filter (PCV filter) unit 2connect as an Independent air intake filter.
Then it wld not b affected by yr throttle openings... thumbup.gif

i expect it to be a bit more, but it does it job, like a few drips been captured. yep i connect it between the intake hose and the rocker cover (the right part facing the engine), another one at the rocker cover to the...bottom of the intake manifold i guess (the left part)?
i change it out every oil change

Mine, 1 is 2032, another 1 is 2x2016 laugh.gif The 2032 remote fob can sen signal very far. However, the 2x2016 is not too far, but it can penetrate multiple concrete wall and still able to pass signal back to the car laugh.gif

Hi Bro YAB... notworthy.gif
Hi Everyone! wave.gif

All doing well & fine...I hope... cheers.gif

Re batt 4remote, can a pc of 2032 fit with good contacts in the batt3 holder?
Also is the Remote circuitry designed to accept a higher output current?
Since the holder is originally designed for 2 pcs of 2016?

In view of abv, wld replacing 1pc 2032 for the 2pcs 2016 provide worthwhile benefits?

Tqvm in adv.

ps. Btw both mine came with 2x2016...hv replaced both once... tongue.gif

A can of worms has been opened.
After reading the posts here I changed my CR-2032 for two CR-2016 (which was rather a chore because the first pack I grabbed was old and stale and only pushed out 0.2 V each, but they were 9 years past BB date) then a newer pack had one out of the first three slightly low, only 2.88 V) and the result is the LED lighting now as its threshold must now be exceeded, and the range vastly extended.
Slightly too early to endorse fully yet but more feedback may suggest all owners check and change to 2 x CR-2016 if no drama occurs.

Hi Bro... notworthy.gif

Re abv...me chk-ed 2b very sure...
Both 2032 & 2016 are rated as being of 3V...
So using 2x2016 in series is equivalent to total of 6V supply.

That wld mean 2X the previous operating voltage of Remote fob...
ie if remote fob was originally fitted with only ONE 2032...

And it wld cause functional probs if circuitry originally meant/set up for ONLY 3V !! shocking.gif shakehead.gif
( If my memory of basic electricity not fail me... sweat.gif )

As in response by Bro YAB davidke20, me too wld NOT dare 2try...
Esp now with abv info & knowledge..the electronics gonna b "fried"!! whistling.gif

However, if one were 2replace the 2x2016 with 2x2032, kinda feel the change might work...
Since the total voltage is still the same...6V. tongue.gif
Only prob is wld 2x2032 fit in2 the same holder...? Thickness? rolleyes.gif

I did a bit of checking out my remote
[attachmentid=4516497]
The HCS300 is the workhorse and its specs show its Voltage limits between 0.3 and 6.6 Volt but it also shows current drain is much higher at the two cell level than the one cell variant, this would tally up with the noted extra range experienced, but of course the downside will be a much reduced battery life. In my case the shorter battery life may enable to use my house stock before they die from old age.
Anyway I'll continue with my experiment until it fails or I hear from another failure.
The silver EPCOS chip I believe is a filter and with a 1 meg resistor to it I doubt any stress will be caused to it.

Hi Bro... notworthy.gif

Fyi me hv juz replaced the 2x2016 in my mainly used remote fob...
From Energiser make to China made ones fr local MrDIY stores...
Lots cheaper but hopefully reliability is not proportionately worse lo... rolleyes.gif

My used Energiser were juz abv 3V each..and the new ones @3.4V each. icon_rolleyes.gif

Tested. Range of operation has increased noticeably!! thumbup.gif

The question now is...for HOW LONG...? rolleyes.gif

NB. Nowadays practically EVERYTHING seems 2b Made in China... tongue.gif

Hi Bro... notworthy.gif

Fyi my remote fob was still working fine...except me felt it shld be possible to work at a greater distance... tongue.gif
On chking, the voltage of each of the 2x2016 cells was kinda juz slightly abv the 3V mark... sweat.gif

IINM all new batt3 in good working condition, are at a higher value than its rated voltage...

So felt replacements (since me hv spares handy) wld give the remote better functionality coupled with peace of mind for me... rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif
