Oil sump
Jaguar: XK140 from engine no. G1908 • XK150 (1957-61) • Mk 8 and Mk 9 (1956-61)
in aluminium. Variant with baffle plate, special oil pick-up pipe and rear oil seal conversion kit
Reinforced sand cast aluminium oil sump for significantly improved oil cooling. Replaces the standard steel sump on vehicles with C8610/1 cylinder block.
The drain plug is set on the side of the sump pan which reduces the risk of damage. A connection for an oil temperature sensor is also fitted.
Please note: To use this sump on a XK engine, teh enclosed lip seal conversion kit must be fitted instead of the rear crank rope seal. Also the oil pick-up pipe must be changed by the customer and the bore on the RH side of the oil sump must be closed, as the oil return pipe runs inside the sump.
