ST170 Sump Question Torque setting for bolts?
Are they the same sump as the 2.0 Zetec engine?
Mine has gone porus and I need to order a new on from my local panel factors.
Do you need to remove the cat to change the sump as the sump does look shallow?
What is the torque settings for the bolts? I dont want to go and squish all the sealer out

We've used a Zetec sump on the ST170 motor we've dropped in a Mk6 Escort

what sump have you bought? They both fit the engine i have used both,the only thing i can think of is it might not clear your down pipe
