Banjo Bolt for sump plug
 
Anyone know what thread the sump plug is as i want to replace the std plug with a banjo bolt and drain pipe from an oil catch can?

thanks Bob - exactly what I am after.

What spec is the banjo bolt for the sump plug .. ie thread size & length? or better still could you give me a link to one :D

Cheers

Its a dash-8 steel fitting Tig'd into a modified sump plug then Aeroquip -8 aluminium parts fuel quality hose to make up the rest, RCM can supply the bits with the sump plug already modified, obviously doable yourself though.
My catch can is the RCM one and the drain is also -8

cheers

Bob - you are a star :D

Will get on the blower to RCM :thumb:

Bob - why is the RCM catch tank 2.6 litres when it is continually draining it back to the sump? (presumeably it does drain into the sump when driving that is)

It doesnt seem to have a level indicator so would be difficult to tell when/if it has anything in it.
