Definitely is. I'm sure mine is going to collect more than most because of the way I drive my car. But hey, at least I know it's working!

I made a video to show how easy this thing is to maintain. 6 minutes to pull the can, drain it, and put it back in.

Nice videos, you just need a cameraman

Or just mount a GoPro on your head

Ha! I thought the exact same thing the moment I started filming this one. A forehead mount would have been perfect for this. And a friend of mine volunteered to film so I might take her up on the offer. I'll definitely need her to help out when I do my lightweight battery kit - working in the confines behind the seats will make filming tricky!

Spring is here (for some of us at least lol), and driving season has begun! These are still shipping so I wanted to remind those of you that have them to drain your oil catch cans

I drained mine in the fall after having driven with it installed for about 2500 kms. Not much driving really and when I drained it there were only a few drops that came out. I was surprised how little oil there was.
