Actually, I am planning to add something like that  this winter when the
flying season is done.

I think there was a design in the Tony Bingelis books on that design . Must
look it up.

Thanks

Chris,

Have you ever tried using a collection can on the firewall filled with
something to cause the foamy oil to loose the foam?  I used an upside down
GUNK can with a vent at the top and a tube going into the top.  I ran a tube
from the breather to the can.  I used the can screw lid to empty it once in
a while.

I'm using about the same as Jim.

8 ounces ( 1 cup ) every 10 hours. Actually , it's not burning up but rather
gets thrown out the breather along the belly ( in spite of the "Stay Dry"
breather kit from GPAC). My engine ( 2180 GPAC) has 102 hours since new.

Chris Gardiner
