Hi all,
Anybody know where I could get hold of a fluid catch can, preferably aluminium (don't care about the colour ) so that I can finish my breather mod? It doesn't need to be large, less than 300 ml and needs to have 3/8 tube (or close enough) connectors on it. preferably with a petcock to drain the fluid from time to time.
Damned if I can find anyone who makes one in NZ for bikes, karts or other small engines.
Cheers.

Coca Cola and Sprite make some excellent ones .. a quick walk around the pits at a classic race meeting will show you how to set them up.

Those Red Bull aluminium bottles doing the rounds at the moment look like the win :)

The aluminium Heineken® ones are way cooler.

PVC Tube capped off with blank caps. Drill holes, Inlet pipe high up glued in (alloy tube from M10), atmosphere vent on top, drain vent with tap on bottom - cable ties job done.

Oddly enough you've given me an idea. I'm off to Kathmandu to get an aluminium water bottle and I'll put some connectors/taps etc in that.
