CCV Mod problems?

I just installed the Stealth/NChornet CCV mod and now my truck is smoking when I get off the throttle. The times I notice it are when I'm driving on a road and come to a light or stop sign. It will idle like that (smoking some) and then when I get back on it leaving the light it will psh out some more. Any ideas? The can went by the tcase so there is about 7 feet of tube per run.

I was out of computer usage for about a week. Long story. I replied to your PM. You must have plumbed this so you are venting to atmosphere which isn't a way I suggest. The smoke you are seeing is nothing the mod is causing, you are simply seeing what has been circulating in your intake for all the years since new. If you installed per my instructions that you should have a closed loop system ( emissions compliant ) and you need to look for the loose joint or connection where it is coming from. Your PM wasn't clear, but I believe you vented to atmosphere and what you are seeing is perfectly normal.
Any more ?, just PM me.

Mine did this for awhile. I was venting to the atmosphere with a super short hose. All i did to fix it was remove the short hose and installed one about 5ft long and ran it to the bottom of the truck.

No more smoking since then.

It will remove the oil in the intake plumbing. This is more of a maintenance mod than a performance mod. But if you are running higher horsepower the oil saturated intake boots can blow loose. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.
