There are many available, probobly all good, but they all reccomend dumping the air back into the intake system.
The goop in the seperator is horrible, and if you have much blowby, lots of it will be pushed back into the air intake.
This is especially nasty in turbos and aftercoolers, and can lead to catastrophic failures.
Your engine can survive a long time with some blowby, but rebreathing it just multiplies the problem.
I use a "puke bottle", search for instructions on boatdiesel forums.
good luck!

Hope this helps some. Where I work we have started to use the Racor CCV system. It seem that I/we have heard all the bad stuff for years. This system does what it is supposed to. It is not a system that
you can install and forget,but it does its job. OK here goes,

We use this system on both mobile and non mobile units. 2003 was the 2nd year on some of the units and they function well. The enviroment that they operate in is harsh,down to -50 degrees. they continue to work flawlessly. I do hope that this does help somewhat. This is an enviromentally sound fix for a really messy problem.
