Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Bought, rather quickly(!) from another member, before I'd worked out where it was going to go! I never did fit it, though it's had a bit of light use previously. One litre capacity, it's got the breather/filter top - the bit that looks like a red plastic cap, so no separate filter required. Two inlet barbs for push on hose - they srew in though, so can easily be swapped for -AN type screw fittings. Sight gauge on the other side for checking level and a drain bung on the bottom. A Mocal original will set you back upwards of £110. Yours for £50 (inc postage to WSCC members). Here's the inside of the breather cap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrisisWolf Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Never quite sure how these connect up. I have two feeds into a plastic container at the moment. This looks like just the two connections - like what I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 That's quite common, one from the block, one from the head. Though engines do differ, some run only from the head, with the block connecting to the head, then the head connecting to the tank. The tank is flexible enough to do both, the spigots both unscrew, so if only one is required, you could fit a blanking plug, or use both, whatever suits.

Onliest Smeg David Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Sold to me! But those wanting a nice 1l Aluminium Oil Catch tank, can purchase the one it's replacing (purely due to different dimensions (cylindrical - taller and narrower, roughly 220mm tall including breather / 100mm diameter)) Anyone wanting further details PM me your email. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 Nipped over to see David's (OnliestSeg's) car at BLiNK, (he was the first to get in touch), unfortunately it didn't fit where he wanted it to go, so I brought the tank back with me. Now back up for sale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the stoat Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 You can mount very neatly on the scuttle using Westfield coolant tank brackets for those that are interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
