I agree, and may install one at some point to catch oil overflow when climbing at extreme angles. I’ve had this happen to me 3 times over the past year and a half, and it causes an annoying and embarrassing oil smoke cloud. To put the amount collected during street operation into perspective though, consider this:
Yes, a lot of the stuff is a little off the wall, just passing on what I saw about the need for the can on some bad engines. I can't speak to what engines don't need it. He was just one I stumbled on in my AM You Tube travels.
True for any state that does visual inspections because it tampers with the PCV system.
Looks like mostly oil to me, because it’s black.After 512 miles.
Harmless? Most likely but I choose not to have it go into my intake.
It's mostly water mixed with oil due to the consistency.
Black but really runny and not thick like oil. Definetly has oil mixed for sure.
0W-20 oil is pretty runny. When oil mixes with water it will look gray, or what some call milkshake. If you let it sit for a while, the oil and water will separate, with the water sinking to the bottom. Mostly water:
Your correct. Not sure how I forget that. I will let it sit all day and report back tonight if anything separated.0W-20 oil is pretty runny.

Sample sat overnight and there was NO separation. It's all oil!
That’s good news! While we (those of us who haven’t yet added a can) don’t necessarily want to be burning that oil, at least is just crank case vapor/oil.Sample sat overnight and there was NO separation. It's all oil!
