peterg Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Angus, can't you just use an old 1 litre oil 'top up' bottle? that's what's in my racecar, it even has a sightline down the side so you can check if there's anything in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Day Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Seriously Angus that's what I used for ages although mine was a 1 litre Castrol gearbox oil bottle. Fit's nicely in the carbon canister holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Plato Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 ally 1L drinks bottle with a 3/4inlet pipe from the engine and then drill a second hole in the top side for a 3/8 breather to route under the car to the rear to vent the fumes. Suspend in a drinks bottle holder from a push bike about £12 all in 😶🌫️ here is my Duratec R .... C7 TOP Taffia joint AO with Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caterhamnut Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 Many thanks all - think I am being sent something from Fishy Dave - but it is obvious that a plastic bottle type affair is all that is required, and the bike drinks bottle holder is certainly a very neat idea.... www.mycaterham.com here Videos here 102,000 miles car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
