oil catch can

[SMP142]

so packing it with steel wool actually makes a difference? wouldnt you have to filter it when it cycles back through again?

Coarse Steel wool like a Pot Scrubber and it has to be a stainless one!

IJ is crazy, I might have to try that. Cheap ass replicas.

 

[SMP142]

cool, yeah the stainless pads makes more sense than the steel wool. wont fall apart. i might have to try that one out!

 

[IJ.]

Yeah sorry I sort of used SteelWool generically should have explained better!

Oil separators work on one of three principles: 1) Inertial 2) Tortuous Path/Cyclonic and 3) Coalescing. Putting steel wool in (I've used nylon kitchen scrubbers) makes for better coalescing. It's an old trick known by old guys

< Old and tricky

It's science...but it works like magic

 

[IJ.]

Shhhh that takes away my reason for Virgin sacrifice

 

[JustAnotherVictim]

Why waste good virgins?

 

[IJ.]

Who said anything about wasting them!

 

[SMP142]
