  • Material: Nylon
    
• Functions:
  
  • Oil return: The sump's design allows for the return of oil from various engine components like the cylinder head and valve train. This oil then gets filtered and recirculated for lubrication.
    
  • Oil storage: The primary function of the oil sump assembly is to store the engine oil. A sufficient amount of oil is essential for proper lubrication of all moving parts within the engine.
    
  • Collection of contaminants: Over time, engine wear and tear generate small particles of metal and other debris. The sump acts as a collection point for these contaminants, helping to keep the circulating oil cleaner.
    
  • Heat dissipation: Engine oil plays a crucial role in absorbing heat generated by the engine's internal combustion process. The sump's design allows some of this heat to transfer from the oil to the surrounding air, aiding in engine cooling.
