Oil sump change nd gasket help needed
Hi all I'm changing my sump as its got a crack. I've got a new sump but I need advise on the best way to do this and have no more leaks. So far I've been told to get a baffle plate gasket from vauxhall for a c20ne 8 valve engine nd vauxhall sump sealant. Can anyone please shed more light thanks
