test this with 15w 50 mobile 1 synthetic. Please that is only water, there are different viscosity between water and synthetic oil.

Im not saying the same theory does not apply i would assume there would be some kind of delay though.

To much pressure pushing against the surface area of the oil.
good point

This principle only work if the pressure on both liquids is the same.

I should make a quad -12 line kit for venting your oil pan. I could sell it on HT, and pretty soon everyones bling machine would have 8 catch cans.

I said that this principle only works with same pressure. I didnt talk about how it is in an engine.
