Not to stray too far into the boring and off topic, but to me, that's exactly why Youtube (and other places) is so bad for humanity. No longer do we have to use ingenuity. Just Youtube it. We'll all look like the people from Wall-E.

Haven't seen Wall-E yet.

To remain on this thread's topic:

I replaced the crappy drain valve on my catch can. The handle just spins cuz I "didn't stop right when it felt like it was gonna go soft". I torqued it to 2.7 grunts last time I closed it. It snapped and free-spinned and that's where it stayed. Upgraded to a 1/4-turn ball valve- Five minute/$8 upgrade.

"Grunts" are not a German torque metric. You have skillz, though.

I'm neither classy or privileged enough to use the Güdendheit torque metric. Cro-Magnon has always been more my style.

Skillz? Thanks, but it was just a screw-out/screw-in replacement. These things should come with such a valve.


Is that a phone camera? Looks awful high quality from here (though I've had some wine).

You've had some good wine. It's an iPhone 5S that's over 5 years old and it's picture capabilities reflect that.

Yeah I did that too. Don’t see why they’d use the silly drain **** valve [emoji107]
