Re: EJ251 SOHC Timing
When I installed my oil pump I squirted it full of Lucas assembly lube, which is pretty viscous. However, it’s now been sitting for some time so I’m sure it has drained down by now.

Re: Warren’s Conversion - Engine Bay
Good idea on the battery. I’ve also seen people put their diesel heater tanks there too to keep it out of the interior of the van.
