in 912 / 914 Technical Questions 8 years ago
Hi all

I am a bit tight on space with my 912s installation any ideas or comments on building an oil tank.
Cheers Gary

    Hi Gary,

    In just a couple of words.

    A really bad idea.

    The tank would need to be so close in construction you might as well leave what you have. It has some very unique and specific design functions along with a quantity need. Altering these could cause a lubrication failure and you buying another engine. I would absolutely leave well enough alone and just make it a tight fit.
