About 1100 miles ago, I installed a catch can from Sxth element, and this is what I caught today. Mostly gasoline and water, and little oil. I did not expect this much in the blowby. My GT only has 3538 miles, so almost new. Has anyone else have similar results?
Also, when I was driving home from work this morning, I smell faint amount of gasoline after 20 miles (which is the distance of my one way trip)

The photo in the original post doesn't look normal to me at all. My oil catch can has always caught oil. I just emptied mine after a few thousand miles (not really sure, just a guess since I don't empty it that often). I have a 2014 Forte5 Ex with 62,000 miles now. I've had a Tork Motorsports tune since May 2019 (at 49,000 miles). I added my catch can at the same time I had the tune done.
