Got bit bored this aft so fitted a few bits i'd collected, used a mini air compressor water trap and some clear pipe, will see how it goes over next few weeks :)

Vented the bottom release trap under the car, may block this and manually empty it in the future, will wait and see what it's like...

Left it in, but drilled a few holes in the bottom as the baffle/filter is too restrictive when not under high pressure.

makes perfect sense as most oil/snot in them is a lot thinner. i love the 'there i fixed it' attitude looks good too,(y) probably much more efficent at catching oil than internet bought cans.
i would consider to change the hosing when you get a chance, i used some of that and it doesnt stay very fresh looking for long.
