Bit off topic but I phoned a ford main dealer to get a camcover gasket and bolt seals......
"You got the reg number?"

"Yes"

"That number's not for a Ford, sorry can't help you"

Just jot down the reg of a ranger next time you pass one dandy,failing that,grab an old copy of autotrader or whatever,and use any reg from a ranger

The engine block is the same as the ranger,the cylinder head is different.

So yes, it follows that the sump washer is compatible.

Here's the killer question with regards to the pela oil extractor....

Is it as effective at removing the last few drops (most contaminated) of oil from the engine?

...OR... is it more efficient at removing the last dribbles that gravity wont shift from the depths of the sump?
