I've read no.

This is a topic that most of us are completely fed up with on F150forum. The latest gen 2.7L has both direct and port injection, therefore eliminating the need for a catch can or a "weep hole" drilled into the bottom of the intercooler.

If its a lego though its machined to an impossibly precise tolerance and is indestructable and capable of inflicting horrendous pain to your wallet and your feet
I guess I need to make it more obvious when I’m being funny......

The nozzle conveniently fits inside the oil drain spout to prevent potential environmental disaster from occurring while off-roading...
Oil pan problem solved. ?
Plastics get brittle and fail over time. Metals do not. I'll take thin metal over plastic in most cases.
As a kid I used to watch my dad jump up and down swearing after stepping on a Lego piece. I didn't quite understand. I'm sure body weight must have played a part because it didn't hurt my feet then. Well I ended up with my own son and damn do those things hurt.
I've also read that the combination of port and direct injection on the engine does not require a catch can, but i was wondering what people on this forum have to say.
The ecoboost is a high pressure engine so I wonder about caking in the long run .... I also know that Ford has developed a oil seperator for the Mustang 2.3L engine which i assume is very similar to the Bronco 2.3

want to know your opinion
They use them in commercial vehicles because they are more concerned about cost than they are about longivity. All plastics consist of organic compounds that will break down over time. My bet is that '21 Broncos shown at a car show fifty years from now will have replaced the drain pan with a metal one and the plastic one will still be slowly decaying in a landfill.

The 2.3 and 2.7 are entirely different, though. BTW, you're talking to an accountant! Lol. But the two engines have entirely different injection systems.... And that's about all I know about that.
You are right, they are different engines but they are similar as well. Both are high pressure and hot engines that inevitably create oil vapors that seep back, thru to the valve seats.
Both engines have been developed with experience from racing technology and I wonder how they will last as daily drivers.
So i just want more info on 'em from people who know a lot more than I do.

All I know is what I've read, which led me to the 2.7 for reasons I don't recall....there's a lot of threads on it here.
I'm just like you, all i know is what i've read .... i will see if I can find answers on threads here .... thanks
