Clearly not.

"Width of the car" to me says as wide as the car.

You should have said that I need one mounted transversely across the sump.

But now I get what you mean.

no, besause it would be perpindicular to the length of the car :wink: :lol: (and before you get confused pikie...I dont mean your sump is as long as the car :P )

I said "the sides that run the width of the car" i.e im offering a directional association for you. If you cant make that simple association, then what more can I do?!

It makes perfect sense....why on earth would I try to say your sump is as wide as the car??? thats just thick.

Dunno why I bother half the time :roll:

LOL, chi8ldren , children, has anyone actually had the oil light come on when on track?

If not then whats the point

prevention is better than cure old chap.

This is best done now, rather than at the same time as a rebuild because "the light came on".

Suppose.......

So how much to baffle a provided sump craig?

Renault didnt intend on us lot being "silly" and taking them on track increasing the chances of engine anhialation so i suppose we have to do the best we can to prevent problems lol
