Recently fitted the BMS OCC. Have done a quick search, and the general consensus (and BMS' recommendation) is to empty the can about every 3-6 months. As with oil change frequency, this must depend on usage.

For those using a catch can, how often are you emptying the can and after approx. how may kms/miles? If you are tracking the car, would you check to empty it sooner than 3 months, or not really necessary? Are there basic rules to OCC maintenance apart from regular checking/emptying?

Thanks
