Easy Oil Level Check
Discussion
Hi All,
Almost at the point of getting the Cat back after 8 months (most of it waiting on the engine being returned due to a rebuild!), and we have changed quite a few bits - one of which is the fitting of a dry sump and separate tank. The tank is the triangular Caterham one, and sits inside the nosecone.
So, is there anything I can do to get an easier oil level reading, rather than having to take off the nose cone every time to peer into the top of the tank? Is it possible to fit a level sensor into the top of the tank?
Cheers, Bradders.

Is this new?

Nah, doubt it.Bert
Do you mean, is the oil tank new? To me, yes, to Caterham, not a clue - can be found here, on the Caterham online shop....
