crossflow oil pump to block gasket?
02GF74 - 23/2/06 at 11:25 AM

anyone got on of these spare? (711M blocck, 1300 but I think they are all the same)

Otherwise I need to fork out for the whole bottom gasket set just for the one gasket.

is it likely the old gasket will be ok? (I know bad bad bad idea ....)

or maybe someone knows part number and I could try Ford?

Try "gasketsforclassics" on ebay, they make gaskets and flog 'em on ebay. They do crossflow sets, fire 'em an email and see if they'll sell you a single gasket ?

I've used 'em before and they were great, nowt to lose

Just buy a sheet of gasket paper from your local motor factors and make your own.I usually end up doing so for odd gaskets, it is easy to do , just cut roughly to size and then place on the block and using a small ball pein hammer tap lightly over the holes and around the edges to produce the holes and outline.

I find that for one offs like this, Weetabix box will usually suffice

I did wonder about using cereal box but sent my couple of quid off to burtons since I don't want to have to do this job again.
