Re: [tech] Oil pump and windage tray Q's...

[frank <fish26133@yahoo.com>]

 Ron, I changed the the pickup off my 1.8 pump to the
2.0L. Use the small plastic baffle it will keep the
oil from moving from moving side to side so much when
cornering.(The windage tray is to help keep the crank
out of the oil) I,m not sure but I think you need to
put the windage tray on then snap the baffle onto the
pickup, befor you put on the pan.

     Good Luck, Frank
