loofa sponge?
i just got a greddy catch can and i heard since they arent baffled to open it up and run a loofa sponge in it or a piece of steel wool? if so do i just pop off the top and put either of them in there?
i was thinking about running one of them strait to my pvc and the other, i want to drill a hole and add a fitting on my valve cover to vent it. any suggestions??
thanks

Re: loofa sponge? (ratboy)
They make stainless steel cleaning pads. They are much made from larger coils, not tightly packed like steel wool. Also steel wool will rust. Not good.
You want something like this:
Make sure you loosen it up a little so its not tightly packed.

Re: loofa sponge? (rioninja)
Or walk into any restaurant kitchen.... hrmmm....
Maybe I should start selling "catchcan baffling"...
On a sidenote, DO NOT get into a tug of war with one of those. (i.e. it gets caught on something). You will lose. Badly.

Re: loofa sponge? (ratboy)
The thing i posted is not steel wool. Steel wool is just a mat of metal fibers. It will
rust, and and is not what you want.
What i posted is another type of cleaning pad. However its made out of stainless
steel coils. Its what you want.
Remember to loosen it apart a little. You dont want it packed in there.
Its not rocket science. Its just something for the oil to condense on. You could
easily use many different things. You want something with a lot of effective area,
that will not impede air flow that much.

Re: loofa sponge? (ratboy)
I've got the old-skool Greddy catch can which doesn't open up at all; totally sealed except for the fittings. should i even tamper with it and try to stuff anything in there?

Go to Home Depot and buy 20 feet of the pullchain for light fixtures you would normally find in an unfinished basement, or the style of chain you might find attached to your Identification that hangs aroud your neck.
