Thread: Oil Catch Tank

  1. #1

    Oil Catch Tank

    anyone know where i could get a Mocal one cheap ?

    do any of the ones on Ebay have any internal baffling ?

    also, most have 2 connectors on the top, is one an inlet and one an outlet ?

    Most available 'catch tanks' are practically useless.

    Like you say, an in and and out.

    What you need is an in, with a baffle, an exit for cleaner vapours at the top, and a drain on the bottom to return the oil to the sump.

    A box with 2 holes is a waste of time.

    yea just as i thought Ben, all these ones on Ebay might look nice but wont actually do anything at all

    yeah but its only there for one thing, to catch oil

    doesn't need to be baffled

    i have one fitted and as you said before is nice but useless.Mine is made by Greedy and has one input and one output.At the out put i have fit a little filter but when im going with full throttle then oil goes out of the filter and makes engine bay a mess
    I think the only way to make something that works,you have to make a custom one.
