'69 Identity Crisis...GL or Classic...

Hi

I haven't run my car yet with the Accusump so I cant really comment on how affective it is.

I particularly like the idea of the pre oiling.

A friend of mine restored an old Toyota Celica Bathurst Touring car, it had similar system system, that's what got me thinking about these systems again.

It got by the scrutineers as an "oil cooler" as it looked like a finned cylinder, it had no valve as such, it used a Type 3 washer bottle to pressurise the system so that when the oil pressure dropped below the pressure in the Type 3 washer bottle it would push on the piston in the extra sump and discharge oil and when the oil pressure came up again in the motor it would refill.
