catch can/breather therory. Something different.
i dont know a whole lot about catchcans and breathers but i have just been thinking a bit.
i have read alot of stories about people filling up good sized catch cans/breathers (32 oz or so) in a single 1/4 pass and start blowing oil from the filter and blowing out dipsticks. has nobody come up with a way to effectlvely relieve blow by? sure people have used more lines, bigger lines, and bigger cans, but thats only fixing the symptom, not the problem.
has anybody come up with a way to fix the blow by problem, and not just the symptom?
if the pressures inside the crankcase are strong enough to PUSH oil up a drain back, there is large amounts of power going to waste.
I THINK.
some people who know what there talkin about, chime in.
