Gooday fellas (& ladies!!  :blush:  )

 

My local garage tells me I've got a non- terminal oil leak, and sump will need replacement in the not too distant future.

 

General advice on what to do about it:

- Secondhand from various zl20let variants?

- Get a new one?

- Straightforward upgrade path?

- Other?

 

Thanks as always  thumbsup  thumbsup  thumbsup

That's sounds pretty definite  B)

 

I'll stop reading about dry sumps then!

 

Last question; where from?

Doesn't seem to be the sort of thing Euro Car parts does
