Oil change "kit"?

[Danny_Ocean]

Is there an oil change "kit"? Instead of searching through the catalog looking for everything piece-by-piece, I'm wondering if there is a part # for a kit containing everything (gaskets, washers, screen, etc.)...

There should be a "valve adjustment kit". Oil change is basically oil & filter if you are not doing the valves.

I've got some drips around the bottom sump plate, so I figure this would be a good time to change everything (crush washer, sump gaskets...?).

I looked for one a few months and "no luck".....Bought the all crush washers, sump gasets, etc. invidividually.....

I think the VA kit comes with a crush washer and two sump gaskets, if I recall correctly. I seem to have some laying about like that.

Thanks. I remember purchasing such kits back in my "VW days".

Everything you want is listed in the PP catalog under Valve Cover Gaskets.. Right here on line.

Yeah, that's where I was looking. Just a bit tedious. Was hoping for everything in a nice big shrink-wrapped pile!

Upon reflection, I would say that in the days prior to the 3.2 L engine, all cars used the same gaskets and a "kit" made sense. Nowadays there are many times when the sump gaskets are not called for, as the sump plate is gone and forgotten on the newer cases. So, seperate items are the sensible packaging option.
