Anyways, I had the pan 95% installed, remote filter mounted, lines run, and everything before I tried to do the final tightening on the bolts. I was about to go 95%, then do another 95% undoing it, then another 100% installing a new pan.
About the oil accumulator, I thought the guy said is this the same "thing" as an oil accumulator because I talked about the baffles. My bad.
