Evening chaps,



Heres a picture of the oil pump on my engine, can someone confirm which way it flows please ?

That looks like a twin scavenge pump. Basically just used to empty the sump. I'd assume it also uses the original pump for pressure.

So the pipe out the top of the pump would be the return to the tank and the center pipe into the sump the feed from the tank to the original pump.

But can't be certain without having it in my hand.
