Cookie Monster Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 So at the risk of extending the debate, apart from removing the foam I just drill two holes in the gasket(as per picture on the link from tbird & S1MON) & nothing else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheds Moderator Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Quoting Stationary M25 Traveller: .... but it is nailed under the block - in the roof of the sump ! Which is exactly where it should be to reduce surge. Put it there and it holds the oil in the sump in a corner. Or were you referring to the oil temp thing?

john milner Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 The foam can't be for surge as it does nothing to stop oil sloshing about in the sump. I think this misconception usually comes from it being ditched when dry sumped. It probably has something to do with taking air out of the oil but only Caterham know for certain and they aren't saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
