OK, I refuse to pay $83.50 for a sump gasket from Fraud so would like to know if I can get the one piece gaskets anywhere else.

Tried Bursons and no go.

Any help appreciated. Oh, and am in Sydney's west..

Cheers
RD

You should be able to talk them into trade price. They are the only place you can get a one piece rubber, all of the others I tried were cork/neoprene.

Bugger, not good news. I know they don't sell alot of them as he would have had to order it in. I'll run the trade line across him and see how far I get :)

I only want a one piece because the change over would be done with the engine hanging of the crane. No chance of flipping her upside down to get the gasket bits to stay in place!

Ummm, RD. Sit the cork one on top of the sump, and then lift it into place.

'spose I could stick all the bits in place with silicon, total PITB when part of it falls in while getting it up there :)
