Re: Oil Separator
I have an anti-splat, drains the oil-scum back into case, gunk into exhaust via a check valve which does the sucking on the case.
Clean the check valve every 50 (oil change), sometimes less. Get

I hear good and bad things about the oil seperator. Mike Bushe speaks against it.

I'm talking about the DRAIN line not the large Vent line... In any case every once in a while I found this captured in the bottle... This is the only pic I took of it, and did not have it

I used Airflow systems separator. A little pricey, but you just install it in the breather line. It worked well for me. No return to the oil pan

Oil Separator
I think a big part of the oil mess on my prop is mist from the vent tube with no separator. I'd like recommendations for a separator. One with no return to the sump.
