I have a one inch vent has an oil/ air separator. Positive pressure with the super charger. My turbo engine will likely have more vent area.

I just tubed it over to the air filter box, but I've always been curious as to what others are doing with this as well, but just never bothered to ask.

My question is with regard to the ventilation of the case. it seems that the rotary has a nipple off of the filler tube for this purpose... (I don't think that I have that tube currently and will probably make one)

 

Using this port, is it a good idea to just plumb it out of the back of the airplane as with a crank case vent?

Is the amount of oil/vapor created significant enough to collect it and recycle it?

 

What ch'all doing?

 

Thanks again,
