lol. He means on the motor dude. Replaces the PCV system really. You need some type of sealed canister, preferably with a breather on the top. I would just go out and buy one. You can get cheap ones off of ebay. Moroso makes a good one too.

Search for a DIY one on here. Theres a good one that uses an outdoor electrical outlet box and some steel braided lines. Or something.

Here's mine! Seafoam baby!

The can is filled with steel wool to help filter the oil vapors too!
