Do you have a one-way valve inline at the valve cover ? Just wondering if that would keep anything that hasn't made it to the catch can from draining back at shutdown.

Maybe we can add this to possible causes of P0420? Oil vapor getting on the O2 sensors.

Nope, George no check valve.
Yep, Don P0420 can be caused by oil in the catalytic converter.
There are lots of sites and videos on YouTube about it.

Great idea but the can is a one piece and so far nothing has been sucked up the intake hose from the valve cover to the tank
