Re: Those with Oil Catch Cans
So I've a question. Is the intent to catch the oil, and add it back to the engine? Or just to catch the oil? I've noticed some of you mentioning adding scotch-brite or steel wool pads into the can to help it catch oil. I assume if you do that, you simply discard anything it catches?
It seemed to me if that was where most of the oil consumption comes from, it might be nice to add it back and not have to always be checking the oil level (once you've established it doesn't drop at a regular rate). However, if that's not the majority of the consumption, I guess it doesn't really matter, you're adding fresh oil somewhat regularly either way.
