Oil pickup location.

I found the bottom of my oilpan has a dimple in it from our offroad TSD rally a few weeks ago.

I a wondering where the oil pickup is in relation to the front or back of the pan. The dimple is towards the back in the center.

the pickup is towards the front. If it's time for an oil change, drain the oil then use a long thin screwdriver to poke around inside the pan. If the pickup is broken off, you'll find it easily

Thanks Mark. I'll try that this weekend.
