Hi everyone,

Found the same question in the archives, but no answer.  Which direction
does the oil pressure relief valve go when you insert it into the engine -
hollow end up or flat end up?  When I removed the old one, it flew out via
the spring so fast, I couldn't tell which end was up.  The Bentley diagram
isn't clear enough.  Thanks in advance!

Peace,
Marla
