Oil Catch Tank

[Toms306]

Evening,

Not really sure where to put this, just wondered where and how you've mounted oil catch tanks? I'm guessing the bulkhead would be a good place but how would you fix a braket on there?

On a 306..... Against the battery box

Interior and extior would be a better bet?

And why would it matter where we put ours? You have a golf

I bolted mine to the battery box but not in the normal way.

I put 2 bolts through the box with washers and lock nuts, i then slide the mounting plate over the protruding studs and fasten with wing nuts so i can quickly remove it to drain it.

Oh and as for an appropriate place to post this a VAG forum is probably the right place but i dont have mod powers to move it there.

Are 306s rear enginee? Oh no, in that case the bays will be pretty similar.

I thought about the battery box but the tank seems a bit heavy for plastic?

i found connecting to the battery box hindered a few issues, mine is a phase 1 and the box differs slightly...

yeh, they provide a right angle brakcket, i had to use another 2, found 2 in the shed, bolt them together, to extend the bracket far enough to gain accessibility for my fingers

bit of padding underneath to stop it rubbing..
