I think it might be worth putting a pipe from the inlet connector into the steel wool ( is it stainless ... it is going to have to see wet hot acid gas! ) to better seperate the inlet and outlet gas.

And as Tim's pic at the top of this page shows, some scrubbing / seperation to knock out the oil helps, so maybe insert a divider ( attached at bottom and sides with araldite or similar ? ) between the inlet and outlet pipes?

I was myself wondering if I should drill and tap a 3rd hole ( is it 3/8 BSP thread ? ) so the cam covers get 1 inlet, crankcase gets it own and air out has the 3rd ?

Any ideas guys who know these things ?

Hi Bryan,
I have asked for you and will you (and the other people that paid via cheque) know what the current status is.

Everyone,
Sorry I have not posted any pic's yet... I have been really busy working this week. I plan to install the can at the weekend so will let you know how I get on.

Thanks again for taking part

Anybody install theirs yet? Mines in... but not attached to anything. The size of the hoses on the crankcase vent are 15mm but we have 12mm hoses and connectors on the can. So think i'm going to get some 15mm hose (the stuff you get is far too short for me to use anyway).

What solution have other people used?

I thought this was going to be the "complete" kit ??

I also have no "T" peices , and no instructions. I bought this thinking it would contain everything I'd need.

also the can is a different size from mentioned

not very pleased or impressed

Sorry I have not found the time to fit mine yet but I will and I will post some pics

All the cheques have cleared and so the last lot of can's will be sent out on Monday (sorry for the delay in clearing them)

OK... So there seems to have been a mix-up with the t-bits, I will be e-mailing the supplier to get this sorted. Please could you check your kits and let me know what you are missing.
