Sump

oil sumpI’ve cleaned and repainted the new oil sump. It has 2 extra tappings: one for the oil temperature sender unit and another for the oil cooler return line. The oil cooler on the 12J and 19J is fed and returns to the oil filter housing (whereas the SIII oil cooler uses a single pick-up from a sandwich plate between the block and the standard SIII filter housing). Since the sump’s return line tapping is redundant with these later engines, it has been blanked off.
