1977 37’ C&L trawlers

Just purchased and boat has a lecta san toilet. I can’t find the holding tank! If there isn’t one where was the original tank intstalled? Can anyone help?
Also power is 2 Lehman-ford 80 hp engines. How much oil do they take? Diesel filter p.n.’s ? Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks
Tom

Those toilets are their own internal holding tank.

They chop up the waste and use blue goo to color the water as it is used to flush .

Sort of like a commercial aircraft setup.

They will need a deck fitting for pump out , or you need to go miles out to sea to overboard discharge , the usual method.

Sadly they all will smell, even with fresh blue goo no stink ..

A better onboard holding system is available, similar, with the waste held below the toilet that doesn't stink.
