Here's my plan to increase capacity. I bought a 4"x 1.7" reusable fuel filter with 5/16" barb adapters and removed the filter and spring. I'm going to install this inline between the AOS and the drain valve which will allow me to accumulate an additional 5 oz of oil below the AOS, so my accumulation capacity is the 1.7 oz of hose length plus the 5 oz from this extra canister for a total of 6.7 oz before it backs up into the AOS housing. It's so easy to drain that I'll just remember to do it every 2,000.or 2,500 miles which will be once between oil changes or every 6-12 months
Gutted this 4" fuel filter to maximize storage capacity. Should be small enough to reside against the side wall but large enough to do something.
Installed 5/16" hose barb ends for compatibility with the size of my AOS drain line
Not sure when I'll get it installed. I'm actually waiting on some custom forged wheels and if they arrive before my next big trip might do all of this (add this to the hose, drain the intercooler, install then new wheels an tires) at the same time while I have it on the lift for access...or may decide to tackle it on the floor in special terrain mode.
