Hi,

For cars like the S4 B5 which run high amounts of blow by (e.g. poeple pooring oil out of I/C's)there doesn't seem to be many poeple who have fitted catch cans (oil air seperators).

Or are those people just quiet?

Has anyone installed one and if so, where did you f=mount it? Any pic's?

I will be installing one..

Cheers

Why do you want to do this??

But an airplane will dump its crankcase air overboard. People use them mostly to keep the underbody from getting all oiled up. Not really to save oil.

Cars feed the crank case vapours back into the engine and burn them. This is the much cleaner solution.

Unless there is a problem in the lower end of the car there shouldn't be that much blowby. And if that is the case then you have bigger problems.

So all of this seems unnecessary.

Do you work with planes?

I'm not an aircraft mechanic but I'm around them all of the time. :-)

You know the saying .... "just do it!" :-p

... to avoid dumping oil on the track in the case of a major engine (rings) failure.
