Iain T Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 I was bored again so fitted a Mishimoto XL (off ebay for £100) oil catch tank. It fits quite nicely next to the clutch MC. The hoses are also from Mishimoto but the clips they supplied are rubbish. The hose arrangement is my best first shot but will at least work. As I have a newly refurbed engine/head I want to reduce the amount of oily fumes it regurgitates. I made the bracket from 3mm Ali and used 2 x 6mm rivnuts in the bulkhead. Now I know it fits I might replace with s/steel bracket. I put a rubber pad under the tank to stop any slap n tickle on the horizontal bulkhead surface. I tried to post this yesterday but it wouldn't upload 😡. Still having lots of problems after the update. Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjit Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 Yea, think you might have some 'nodding dog' issues with that bracket - or does the catch tank actually sit on the bulkhead and the arm's just to keep it upright? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might tack weld a flat verticle spine along its length and to both end flanges to stiffen it up. Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
