|  What is the top up tank for? Great ! As a newbie I am still finding out what things are..... I have item 6 the oil top up tank; is this for the engine oil ? If it's a top up and the dipstick shows the sump level is fine how & when does the engine lubrication system use the tank contents ? Sorry to dump such a heavy question but I'm on the (very) steep learning curve.  Thanks | ||||||||

| Theres a float in the sump and when the oil level drops there is a pump on the top up tank that adjust the engine oil level, if you can follow that. Dave PS welcome to the forum

| Just don't rely on the top up, they seem to be unreliable. (But mine works OK )
