Subject:Skinny on Eurospec Oil system
Date:Fri, 25 Sep 1998 22:28:18 EDT

Some people have been asking questions about what the oil pan on the Eurospec
motor is like and wondering if they had somehow taken into account that the
motor was tilted and if not, "Oh my, the motor will be starved for oil!"  Well
I talked to the folks there again today and happened to ask about the oil
setup.  I was told that the oil pan is the same one (or similar) to that of a
diesel Vanagon and that they also utilized the longer oil pickup tube.  I was
also told that they have been driving thier "test" vans around for about 2
years now with no problems.
So there you are.  All of those folks who didn't sleep last night because they
were wondering about this oil setup, you may now sleep soundly tonight.
If you have any other questions let me know and I'll ask the next time I call
them.
