    ZD30 catch can

    Hey guys any recommendations on where to buy an oil catch can for a ZD30 Patrol?
    I bought one from an ebay seller but I'm not happy with it and the bloke I'm fitting it for wouldn't be either. Do you generally plumb them back into the engine or just use a drain tap?
    Cheers all.

    Thanks guys I will look into these. Got a 3" mandrel exhaust so no cat converter in the way, but I would prefer to plumb it to make it maintenance free as it is for someone else not me.
    Provent? can I find these on the net? Cross country I know of this truck has one of their intercoolers on it, beautiful workmanship.

    The important part is to consider which ZD30 Patrol you have as onwards from GU4 version the engines no longer have the hole in the block for the drain to be connected as the previous versions. So in that case the alternative methods of draining the Provent needs to be figured out.
    Cheers

    It's a GUIII so the hole should be there. I have got the Cross country kit with the Dawes valve in it and it looks to be the goods. will be fitting it in a few days once I finish putting the GU TD42T into the GQ to make some workshop room. Thanks everyone for their advice and information.
