Hi I am planning to make an oil catch tank on my 90 td. Vehicle no longer has a turbo on it. Probably due to reliability issues on the early models. Vehicle currently has breather from oil filler literally stuffed into intake pipe just before inlet manifold. They used to go in just before air filter but presume heavy breathing clogged filter. Now I own the truck I want to route the breather into a catch tank then empty out any oil manually target than risk engine running on. Chap who mot'd it said make one using plastic bottle. Fed in the breather pipe then take another pipe put and run it up snorkel drill a small hole in the ram and put it in there. Does this sound right? Has anybody done this before or something similar? Trying to make it ask water tight as snorkel is a new addition. Just want to get it right. Any help out photos much appreciated. Cheers Richard
