    This is how I mounted mine on the 3L. That little bracket holding it is just screwed onto one of the captive threads with a compatible bolt...
    THat whole area was busy under my hood as the compressor and battery were there so limited for room. But made it work.
    And the drain hose went down and under the wheel arch for easy draining.

    I agree with Hodge and Roofy. Why put black oil back in. Best to drain it and dispose of it correctly.

    I was saying to mudski today that we used beer cans on our motorbikes... Japanese beer still have steel cans and were perfect.

    I do know that my current set up is wrong and needs changing and will be sorted tomorrow while im doing my radiator.

    I dont even run one on my ute. Just a length of hose that I stuck into the chassis rail. I am yet to even see a drop of oil after 4 years. And 3 of those at over 20psi of boost.
