Some of you know I recently installed an small oil catch can on my truck, as I have an intercooler that I'm trying to keep clean. The catch can I got turned out to be just that, an empty can. I was at Tractor Supply Co. the other day when I noticed these pesticide sprayer filters. They have a two layer wire mesh filter in them. One layer of course screen, and one layer of very fine screen. The filter cup spins off, and had an o-ring for sealing. It has larger 1" NPT threads in it, but I picked up a couple adapter to go to a 3/4" barb fitting. I thought this might do a better job of pulling the oil out of the air. It would be easy to add a scotchbrite pad to it for added filtering.
I figure I'll build a bracket for it, and install it in the next couple day, but I thought I'd see what you guys thought about it.
I included one pic of my current catch can.
The price for this filter is $25 at TSC
