Hyuck Hyuck, that was so funny! :smack:

Seriously though, I had looked for the same stuff at Lowes. They had an air/water separator for air compressors and it would do the same thing. However, I have seen people run the same setup and have to empty the separator very often. I think the filter in the separator is too restrictive and causes too much oil to be pulled from the air. I thought about putting a different, less dense filter in it.
It can be built for much less than the aftermarket is charging.

I was getting a lot of oil on my breather filter and am now running the PCV suction on one side and the breather on the other...can you say vacuum leak? Not ideal, but it runs fine like it.
