ya. i pretty much just built a catch can using air tool parts since you can do it cheap. i want to get a better water/oil separator but the one i currently have does its job.
You actually WANT the pcv system working as it should. It is fine to have a simple breather on the intake side, but, PCV valve really needs to be there, and hooked to the intake.
PCV draws a slight vacuum on the crankcase, which aids in ring seal, and evacuates combustion blow-by from the case. Keeps your oil cleaner longer.
