Well, that's good enough for me.
I was looking forward to firing the Milling Machine up, but I'll let it pass now.

Cheers Beetle.   :thumb:

Hey Beetle, Thanks for the info! So I dont have this issue on my 17 Griso? I didnt know the sump was different . Thats great news. I had not ordered the gaskets yet,as I was waiting to hear back from the guys here, but if thats the case, I would have ordered the wrong ones anyway.
 
 FWIW... My Griso does have a Beetle map, made for the stock pipe,and it runs fantastic!

MY15 and newer Griso's have the same sump as the 1400. So any Diavolo Nero or Diavolo Rosso made in 2015 or later will have the newer sump that does not have this issue.

It's only the Griso with the 1400 sump. No other model in the CARC series had it.

Glad this was re-posted as I missed it the first time. Oil needs to be changed in the Norge so I'll take a look at that gasket.
