Fitting catch tank to 16v corsa engine

[dan23]

Want to fit a catch tank to a Chevrolet kalos
the engine is very similar to the 16v corsa
I need a rough diagram of which pipes to fit ?

I assume one from throttle body an one at back of head but this thing has a lot of pipes

[mowgli]

why do you need to fit one? is it breathing loads of oil or something??

there will be a breather pipe from the head & possibly the block, you need to route them to a catch tank, and block off the holes in the inlet manifold where the breather usually goes..

but why is it necessary? are you track daying it?

[dan23]

its necessary because at times it runs very poor
the valves have been lapped egr blanked new plugs coil pack an leads
new o2 sensor at times it seems to struggle an miss fire
so I want to fit a catch tank or a plastic bottle an see if fires any gunk out of the pipe
I m also open to suggestions
the Vaux egr blank fits the kalos I assume the engine is the same/ similar

Are you doing track days in this then?

[dan23]

Lol
no it's my mums car
it seems to miss fire when drove in stop / start traffic

[mowgli]

get it plugged in somewhere, there is a fault that a catch tank won't cure

[dan23]

There are no codes stored at the moment ( I cleared the codes after fitting O2 sensor ) it also had code po300 random / multipul miss fire

[mowgli]

coil?

[dan23]

coil?

its had
new coil plugs an leads
then it gave the code for o2 sensor
( the sensor wiring harness bolts through the coil pack I moved it to fit the coil )
so I fitted an o2 sensor
its still the same
the egr is blanked off

I thinking blocked breather pipes cant think of anything else

[dan23]

I m pretty sure this is the vacuum pipe that blows so I will fit this one to a catch tank
