You mean you have one already and need to fix it? Or that you're trying to fit one from scratch?

And how do you mean it isnt working?

Is it not catching any oil? or is there still oil going into the inlet?

Thats the way I have mine now,1 hose from each rocker breather and 1 from the crankcase breather running down under the car. I just need some filters to go on the end of the hoses now.
I also removed the PCV valve and plugged up the hose that goes to the throttle body.

What I found with having the catch can was that the condensation was collecting in the can and mixing with the oil vapours to produce a mayo type gunk !
Without the catch can I only get abit of condensation from the hoses,I dont get any puddles of oil.
