Default Easiest $25.00 Catch Can in the WORLD

Seriously... your mom could do it.

Wal-Mart, Campbell Housfield water separator/filter thingy: $19.99
2 3/8" barb fittings and some vacuum hose: few bucks.



screw in barb fittings... mount. (I chose zip-ties for the whole "ghetto" look) and run vacuum lines.
*whew* after all that work... time for a beer.

I looked at using one of those once - the directions that come with it say not to use it with any kind of fuel or oil. Breaks down the polycarbonate filter element or whatever.

Yea... open up the directions it says all the stuff it can and can't be used for... Just as long as u dont use SEARS brand oil you're fine... besides all it does is discolor the plastic... And u can always take out the filter if u want to... If u take the filter out it will still do its job because of the way it's shaped... oil won't be able to pass through even without the filter.

Sorry and thanks.
