I have been noticing that different people have different amounts of accumulation in thier OCCs.
Was just wondering, does anyone think that this could have to do with different weights of oil? (i.e. people running 0-30 getting more in the OCC than someone running 10-40)

Maybe a poll is in order.

im pretty sure it depends on how you drive........the more harder you drive the faster it fills. let granny drive it.and you wont see any oil

 

Yeah, I would imagine there would be a couple of variables in there: How you drive, what kind of oil, maybe particular to each engine, etc.

 

I ran 0W-30 Mobil 1 syn this winter and not only got more oil in a shorter time in the CC but it discolored the clear oil lines twice as bad....but yes, it depends on the weight of the oil (thinner oil will get past that pesky PCV valve easier) and how you drive....(higher speeds mean higher oil pressure on that DAMN pesky PCV valve).
