couple of weeks ago I cracked my oil sump.
I ordered a sump from Infinicar. Bloke was very helpful. I usually use them for parts I need when I find out how much Reanult want to rip me off.
He said He didnt have any Williams engines in to take the sump off but said the PH2 Valver ones were the same. Cast ally sumps. He said the plastic bit would be different but I could swop them over.

I ordered a few parts from renault, bolts, roll pin blah blah and have had a rest for a couple of days while I waited. Just about to swap the baffles over on the sumps today and found the sumps are completley different castings. The internal ribs and the plastic part mounting points are different.

At a guess Id say that I cant use the Valver sump and plastic bit because the feed pipe and dipstick wouldnt line up?

Stan, BenR, ANYONE! give me and answer please.

Williams sumps from Reanult are £240. Anyone got one for sale? :)

Thankyou!

Never had a problem TBH and i've ordered heaps.

Pauls also always been helpful and knows a lot but TBF he's not the only person who works there and mistakes sometimes do happen.

Have you spoken to him about sorting it out?

Yeah, he was really nice about it. I dont have a problem with them at all. They are nice guys. They just said they will try and find another one for me. Would give me a ring in a couple of days.
