+ | There were 2 different filler caps for these tanks (62625-62 in 1966 and (62625-66A) in 1967 (both are screw-in type). \\ | ||
+ | This tank is taller than the 70-up lunchbox tanks, had a chain oiler port, banjo fitting for vent line, and used lower bolts with cotter pins, castle nuts and springs. ((Dr Dick of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?p=2629740#post2629740)) \\ | ||
+ | 66-69 CH oil tanks are not the same as 70-78. They are basically the same shape BUT it was moved across in 70 to fit the small battery on the left. \\ | ||
+ | So all the bracketry don't fit. Later ones can be re-drilled to suit earlier frames but it's a pain in the butt. ((thefrenchowl of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?p=2629740#post2629740)) \\ | ||
+ | Drain plug (704) is on the left side on the bottom of the tank. Oil filler hole is on the front side of the tank. \\ | ||
