Description
Mishimoto’s MMBCC-ACRD15-18PBERD is a direct-fit baffled oil catch can kit engineered specifically for the Honda Accord 1.5T’s L15B7 engine. It centers on a patented (US D884,760 S) 6061-T6 billet aluminum can with a 50-micron bronze filter that intercepts oil and fuel vapor before they can reach the intake tract, and this particular kit comes with a Red powdercoated, application-specific mounting bracket.
Blow-by affects nearly every internal combustion engine, and the parts of a car engine on the Honda Accord’s 1.5T L15B7 are no exception: crankcase pressure forces a mixture of oil and fuel vapor back through the intake system, where it coats valves and other engine parts and encourages carbon deposits that rob performance and efficiency. Mishimoto’s baffled oil catch can mounts in line with the PCV system and captures these vapors before they reach vital components of the automobile engine, helping defend the intake system and essential car engine parts from oil blow-by while helping maintain proper octane levels and reduce potential detonation during automobile combustion. An internal air diverter increases air turbulence to improve oil separation, and both the filter and can remain fully serviceable for the life of these car parts.

This Mishimoto catch can kit is a direct fit for the 2018-2020 Honda Accord, covering the LX, EX, EX-L, Sport, and Touring trims, as well as the Accord Hybrid, Hybrid EX, Hybrid EX-L, and Hybrid Touring trims. The kit is designed around the Accord’s L15B7 engine and its factory PCV routing, so no cutting or splicing is required to get the catch can in place.
