Hi can anyone help me with this is it a gasket or A o ring that you use to connet the pick up pipe to oil pump one of my books say a gasket and the other says a o ring thanks cheers tim

Has either side of the joint got an O ring groove??

[tim murphy]

Yes it has got a sort of grove but i think its a gasket used to seal it to the oil pump just got low oil presure on rebuilt engine mate going to do a oil presure test on it soon thanks . Cheers tim

just take the old one off or take the pick up point and find one that fits from halfords or a auto parts place, ive just changed mine, but i did a whole entire gasket change. so it was part of the pack
