Cool will a CATCH CAN work for me???????

will a catch can help extract the water vapors or condensation from the oil. Every time i open my oil cap it has water drops in it. i only work a mile or two from home so my oil never heats up enough to burn the water from my oil. Thanks guys in advance. ps.... also looking into a pre-oiler. what u think

you really only need to get it hot enough a couple of times a week if you drive it everyday to get the condensation to evaporate. It really isnt abnormal for you to see water drops or even a little milky residue on the cap in the colder months, as long as there is nothing in the valve cover when you look domn in it you are fine. Drive it a little more, you will enjoy it!

I try to keep short trips minimal, but even so, everytime I shut of the car and crack the bleeder on the catchcan I am amazed at how much water comes out.
