No Nuts Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Is the one fitted by Caterham a special part or is it the standard K - series sump gasket? Cheers Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stationary M25 Traveller Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Special. Expensive. Edit .... however ... what do we do with the 'special' shelf on the gasket ... drill holes in it to let the oil through !!

No Nuts Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 He he, you've sussed my plan! 😬 Yeah, just wanted to check before spanking £45ish on one. As you mention drilling holes, do you know where DVA's pictures / instructions are? I'm sure I've seen them online before but struggling to find them today. I've dropped him an email but if anyone knows where they are... Edited by - No Nuts on 10 Mar 2013 13:14:47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stationary M25 Traveller Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 A couple of 10mm dia holes where the inside face of the sump would be to drain the oil off the shelf. Either side of a sump fixing bolt mid shelf from memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stationary M25 Traveller Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Just make sure the drill doesn't snag and tear the gasket !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Nuts Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 Hopefully clamping it between a couple of blocks of wood should help. Just need to make sure I'm drilling in the right place. Risky business this sevening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
