Transit connect upper sump removal

Postby dannysconnect » Tue Nov 20, 2018 1:50 pm

How do you removal the upper sump on the 2003 tddi 1.8? I've got the gearbox and flywheel off

Seemed to have removed all the bolts out the upper sump but it won't budge behind the crank pulley... do I need to remove the chain and gear too?

Just to let you know in case anyone attempts this job

The chain DOESN'T need to come off

There is a hidden bolt inside the oil pan & also a pick up pipe that runs from the oil pump.

that needs to be removed -

once this is done with a bit of wiggling the upper sump will come off (The rear crank oil seal needs replacing at the same time)
