Dan, coming from the air breather.....all the dirt and sand that gets blow over the engine and collects on top of the valve cover is unbelievable. I sure don't want that being sucked into the engine.

I want clean filtered air coming into the crank case, not dirt, dust a road grime

What you're seeing is not coming out of the crankcase breather. It is ambient dirt blown around by normal movement of the car through dusty air...sticking to the oil film that does come from the breather and deposit on the valve cover.

What does the water separator cost? Is its only purpose for removing water or is it also a fuel filter?

There is no oil film on the valve cover, just lots of dust, sand and debris... I just don't want any of that getting inside the engine through the air breather.

This will very soon be a really dumb argument to have, if it hasn't already reached that point. Think about it for 30 seconds: tens of millions of Chrysler (and every-other-make) cars have been equipped with ducted crankcase breathers going to the dirty side of the air cleaner housing. Every single Chrysler product since 1968. You don't seriously, really think they're all full of this sand and crud you imagine to be coming out of (or going into) the crankcase...do you?
