Banditmac Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 Swapping over to a B12 sump on my 11 motor. theres a tab on the down tube that seems to be blocking me from fitting the b12 sump as its hitting the oil pressure regulator, or is it pressure relief valve, can I cut the tab off, or whats the best thing to do?

colinworth79 Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 I always thought that it was just a case of changing the pickup and sump . The 2 steel drain tubes should be the same . Only thing i can think is the tubes are fitted wrongvway round or you have 2 of the same side as they are handed . Quote
fatblokeonbandit Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 nope yhe tubes are differamt as well, they need to be swoped as well 2 Quote
clivegto Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 You could alter the tab it's only to stop oil squirting up into the engine. Quote

Why would the oil being sent upwards like that be a bad thing?. I did think about removing it, but decided the jap engineer that put it there originally might have had a reason and probably knows a bit..lol. I would have thought oil being thrown up on the crank was a good thing, or is it that there would be too much oil being thrown up at the linings?? I could alter it no bother, thanks for the tip.
