The PCV system on our cars ventilates the crankcase. There is oil that goes throughs the vent tube that comes out of the crankcase, but it can't really be stopped. The air from the crankcase is then fed back into the intake, causing the burning of oil, which is bad for the air and bad for the parts. The catch can very simply catches the oil in the PCV hose before it goes into the manifold. They are very easy to make, any Water/Oil seperator for a compressor will work just great. Good $10-$15 to spend. Or you can buy the AMW or Greddy for quite a bit more.
