Titanium7 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Collecting all the parts to dry sump my 1800K with an external front mounted Brise tank and CC Gold pump. One item that I need a little help understanding where it fits is the Part No. 75722 Hi Line Scavenge Filter. Can anybody describe where on the sump pan (if it does go there) it fits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Green Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 It fits into the sump pan through the hole in the side. The metal pipe which connects to the hose which runs up to the scavenge pump, fits on the outside... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titanium7 Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 Thanks for that, I have a second hand sump coming and I could not see it in the photo that was sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomB Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Do these filters ever need servicing or replacing? I remember when I swopped by DS gear from one engine to the other I dropped these filters in petrol to give them a clean, but thats all. Do they have a life?

Jason Plato Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 its just gauze. Unless its damaged it would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team SLR No.77 Posted May 9, 2014 Leadership Team Share Posted May 9, 2014 Tom, my personal opinion is yes they do! There's only one scavenge in the Caterham sump and even with the gold pump, scavenging is on the limit of the requirements of the system ... any debris of any sort will compromise the scavenge further. Just remove it and clean it. Stu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Englishmaninwales Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Yep, they do, I ve seen mine partially clogged with crud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomB Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Holy thread resurrection. Realised why I've still not removed it and cleaned. The little 4mm cap head is rounded to buggery and I can't get the filter out. I've tried the blow lamp but it's stuck. Tempted to cut the head off with a Dremel, but then I'd be left with a thread stump I might be able to get out. Ive just though I could cut it, remove the filter and use two small nuts to undo the threaded shank. Does this sound risky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I've read hammering an appropriate sized torx bit in can get enough purchase to remove Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
