frozenxr6t Member 140 Member For: 9y 8m 13d Posted 26/05/16 08:08 AM Author Share Posted 26/05/16 08:08 AM Sumps still in place now as we pulled sump down enough and lifted engine enough to get the pump off. I'm exchanging pumps so I needed to send mine down before they send new one unless I pay extra 275 bucks. But turned out my pump was total so found a replacement pump in working order for 30 bucks so sent it down so new one should see my place next week.. Still know tune oil pump let go first.. And I had the airbox setup back in.. But turbo side is back now and I'll be going straight to get a re tune once pumps in.. P.s sump had no gasket just sealant around the sump and block faces. But on I seen on eBay gaskets for ft xr6 turbos??? Anyone know for sure if I was meant to have a gasket in between the sump and block? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours wasn't leaking around that area, was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
