The EPA would never allow an automotive manufacturer to design a system that intentionally leaked oil and fuel onto the ground, no matter how small the amount. Aftermarket companies wouldn't be allowed to do this either, they would be fined very quickly and/or shutdown.All this catch-can talk has got me thinking. Why do we want to CATCH the blow by gas/oil/water mixture and have to worry about emptying it? Why not just vent it straight to the pavement going down the road? It's mostly water anyway. The amount of oil contained in the mixture is minute compared to the amount that vehicles regularly LEAK while driving down the road. Then just plug the inlet line that fed this crap to the top of the valves causing the carbon build-up. It seems to me that would produce a much cleaner fuel/air/burn mixture without mixing in those unwanted contaminants. What kind of warning light would I trigger if I did this you think?
