Which Sump?


Recommended Posts

Its only the engine baffel thats been removed,not the new sump from wf.Can't see the point of two.

Regards.

I had a fouling problem with this plate when I first built my car. I can vouch for the fact that it does a very important job. Without it I got oil surge at anything over 4000 RPM even in a straight line and oil rapidly exiting via the breathers. Made for a very boring trip to Le Mans that year.

My Raceline sump has a flat baffle just under the curved one but the curved one is there to strip oil off the crankshaft and drain it into the sump rather than into the cam cover. Also, it helps prevent the crank from whipping up oil in the sump, aerating it and heating it up.

And to answer Justin, my ARPs were marked 1.6 and were fine on my 2.0 MK 1 Zetec. Raceline assured me they were the correct ones. I can't remember what application the other ARPs marked for the Zetec are. Maybe one of the later Zetec engines or the Duratec.
