Sporto expansion tank placement - 911T

Post by Joelipol »

Due to my rear bulk head being replaced I've lost the mounting points for the sporto expansion tank and where exactly it should be mounted.
Does anyone have any decent shots of one in situ and a guide as to how it is mounted on the bulk head?

thanks in advance.

Hi, my engine is out and the tank removed so I can take a pic for you showing the mounting holes.
This is the only pic I can find at the moment.
I think there are 4 m6 studs that the tank fixes to, I will confirm tomorrow.
