Oil Catch tank

Recommended Posts

Hi there, Cleaning out my garage I found a very nice oil catch tank I never used on my old car. Would like to use it on my 2.016v k jet but a little confused where to put it. has anyone else got one fitted?

I reckon it goes here

no, it would need to go on the front of the engine behind the alternator, that's where the crankcase breather is located.

but you need to have it 'in-line' and not vented to the air, couple of reasons, firstly it would fail an MOT being vented to the air, and secondly the crank case needs some negative pressure from the inlet 'sucking' from the crank-case.

I knew it would have to be in line but was just unsure of which vacuum hose to splice it into.

going off the same pic did you mean this one?
