Has anyone noticed this in their catch cans. when i first installed it it just got oil in it. I use 15w-40 for oil weight. the last timei changed my oil the oil one i had was 5w-30 so thats whats in right now. i never had this beige colored oil in with the 1540 but since the 530 its become this color. i smell some gas with the oil. im wondering if since i removed the vias and now have the block plate if some gas is trickling into the catch can to do this... anyone get this too?

well FWIW- the oil that i take out of my HD catch can always has a gas-like smell...

 

mine did too. i wonder know if since it was with a thicker oil before it just didnt look different...and now since its a light weight and thinner oil it reacts different....? kinda like mixing vodka with redbull vs vodka with soda..just my analogy

 

Gas? Maybe. I just thought it was water/moisture being pulled out of the air and mixing with the oil in the can. I'll taste some next time and see if thats right..

 

thats wierd mine just smells like burnt oil lol
