Looking for advice on air-oil separators for a Tiger. I keep the oil at 6 qts.
but still get oil on the belly.
Does the M-20 unit work as advertised??
I appreciate any input anyone can offer.

Dave ... check how far your oil relief tube penetrates into the air stream.
I think the desired number is 1.25 inches.
Mine was more, and when I reduced the amount below the cowl to 1.25 inches
the belly stayed cleaner...

My experience is taht the M-20 doesn't have the volume necessary to be of
much help. That, and it doesn't have a positive flow back to the engine. If
you want an air-oil separator, look into getting the Walker (Air-Wolf) air-oil
separator.
