bit of a mishap this morning. dropped the oil out of the xflow, but what really made my day was the thread from the sump coming with it i didnt even cross thread it! anyway, what im getting to, anyone know where to get a sump from. 1600, 711m xflow manual. i would repair it, but if i can get a really good one i will replace.

Where r u located?
I might have a spare one?
Cheers

Port Macquarie New South Wales. i have managed to get access of a car for a week which has bought me time

also is there a way of removing the sump without removing the engine from the car?

I have one in the back corner of my garden shed,I wont be able to get at it for a day or so, but are they all the same, I have a pile of 1600 engine parts but they are xxx681 blocks that I assume the sump is off. I'm in Casino if your interested.

Just because the sump plug thread is stripped doesnt mean you need to replace the sump!  Much easier to get an oversize tap and a new oversize sump plug.
Your local parts store should be able to help you out

its ok i got a self tapping sump plug for $3:50. and i just prefer to replace than to repair engine parts, but this will do for now. thanks guys
