Not sure if it can be repaired given where it is and how far it has spread. I'm no expert though, it might pay to check with an engine rebuilder.

That would explain it! Mine has a similar fault, but it has 5jj clocks so no relay. I should check the wiring.

Thanks for the update, I haven't checked in for a while. Mine is up to 120,000 miles, so yours should have a few years left!

Sorry to hear about the cracked sump. There's only one way that would happen, and that's the drain plug being overtightened.

Sorry, G1zzard, I missed your post in all of the Temu spam. I've always wanted a 5pw but there are very few in NZ. Enjoy!

I am very careful removing the tank!

If that happens, then you put the cap on, let it warm up, then check the level again after it cools down.
