    Lol, yep. Got delayed watching a Hawaii team play in the Little League World Series today. Too bad they fell a bit short, had a a good run though.

    The EGR tube wasnt very dirty, and the EGR valve was also pretty light in fouling. Definitely better than the one I got off of eBay. It must've been off a high mileage Prius that blew a head gasket, the EGR cooler was plugged up pretty good.

    That's a really good idea because the car wash guy who drives it into the bay had no clue what he was looking at . I still kind of like the original look because I am a plumber

    Got my oil catch can installed yesterday. Runs buttery smooth. Next month I'm going to be replacing the rotors, pads, and doing a brake bleed to get new fluid in there.

    Have you cleaned the intake manifold and the EGR/valve and cooler as well?

    If not I'd do those, or that catch can is like lipstick on a pig.

    Here's my catch can contents at 2 weeks. Seems to be catching about a teaspoon a week. But I moved my PCV valve to right before the intake manifold, so there's an open fitting at the OG pcv valve location. 20210904_142920.jpeg

    Please post your rate of accumulation in your oil catch can. I'd like to see if my PCV valve relocation had any affect on it.

    Installed the replacement Prolong Harness this morning.
    I measured each individual battery pack.
    They seem to be pretty even. Within about .015 volts.
    I think that it is good for a 12 year old Hybrid Battery!

    Battery voltage, starting from Passenger Side to the Drivers side.
    The "-" or "+" means it was at a voltage but bouncing to the next higher
    hundredth of a volt.
    The "-" means it was mostly staying to the lower voltage but sometimes
    going to the next higher voltage.
    And the "+" mean it was bouncing evenly between the two voltages.

    I noticed an error, for number 3: 7.75-6 +
    It should read 7.95-6 +
    NOT 75. And too late to edit it...

    Just went to ebay and bought a $20USD oil catch can. Most of the designs in that price range are the same. Mine was some unbranded company.
