PPE Crankcase Ventilation Oil/Water Separation Kit

2020–2023 Ram 1500 3.0L EcoDiesel

Part #: 214023000

Overview

The PPE Crankcase Ventilation Oil/Water Separation Kit is a precision-engineered upgrade designed specifically for the 2020–2023 Ram 1500 equipped with the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine. This kit effectively addresses the common issue of carbon-based contaminants recirculating through the factory crankcase ventilation system, which can lead to sticky carbon buildup inside the intercooler, intake manifold, and intake valves. Over time, these deposits degrade engine performance, reduce fuel economy, increase exhaust gas temperatures, and cause cylinder compression loss.

By separating oil and water vapor from the crankcase gases before they re-enter the intake system, the PPE Oil Catch Can Kit helps maintain engine efficiency, reduce harmful emissions, and extend the life of critical engine components. It is an essential upgrade for Ram EcoDiesel owners seeking to preserve peak engine performance and reliability.

Key Features

Designed with durability and efficiency in mind, the PPE Crankcase Ventilation Kit incorporates advanced materials and engineering to protect your engine from harmful deposits. Key features include:

• Molded, oil-resistant PCV hoses with a one-inch diameter for optimal flow and long-lasting durability
• Highly efficient stainless steel filter screen that captures oil and water vapor exiting the PCV valve
• Longer hose lengths that reduce the velocity of crankcase gases, promoting condensation and separation of contaminants
• Prevents sticky carbon buildup in critical engine components such as the intercooler, intake manifold, and intake valves
• Proven performance through extensive testing under various weather and operating conditions
• Simple bolt-on installation with no permanent modifications required
• Helps maintain cylinder compression and reduce harmful emissions
• Specifically designed for Dodge Ram 2020–2023 3.0L EcoDiesel engines for perfect fit and function

Construction & Design

The PPE Oil/Water Separation Kit is built to withstand the demanding under-hood environment using premium materials engineered for durability and reliability. The PCV hoses are molded from oil-resistant compounds that resist heat and chemical exposure without degrading over time. The stainless steel filter screen is corrosion-resistant and expertly designed to efficiently separate oil and water vapor from crankcase gases.

The system’s design focuses on reducing gas velocity through longer, larger-diameter hoses, which encourages condensation and separation of oil and water vapor before these contaminants can reach the intake system. This thoughtful engineering ensures consistent, reliable operation and long-term protection for your engine.

Installation & Fitment

Installation of the PPE Crankcase Ventilation Oil/Water Separation Kit is straightforward and requires no permanent modifications to your Ram 1500. This kit is a direct bolt-on upgrade for 2020 through 2023 Ram 1500 models equipped with the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine. All hoses and fittings are designed to fit precisely with factory components, making the installation process quick and hassle-free for professional installers and experienced enthusiasts alike.

What's Included

• Oil/Water separation catch can assembly with stainless steel filter screen
• Molded one-inch diameter oil-resistant PCV hoses
• Mounting hardware and brackets for secure installation
