Nuffink much - a tank at the end of a pipe (sometines containing wire gauze or other filtration) which allows the oil vapour to collect as oil. which can be, um, responsibly disposed of. 'Trick' on the custom scene used to be to use a beer can - very "cool", ahem. Some swear (vigorously) b...

The only solution is to suck it into the engine - and burn it! ! No, it's not. One solution is to suck it into the engine - and burn it, another is to vent to air, as some of the 1098s (among other engines) did. I've no strong opinion either way, but "The only solution" seems a little odd.

In the context of S*x Pistols its not family friendly :-? And being thick, I didn't know the checking system would allow "sex" I strongly disagree. Not a discussion for here, really - should any other mod happen to agree, feel free to delete. IF it is decided to delete, be prepared to jus...

We're on a hiding to nothing here - clearly it's another one of those things that some will refuse to believe. Whatever - it doesn't alter the awkward matter of it being the truth.
