[Fot] Accusump cleaning, was sump capacity

My understanding is that every time we have a major internal event with bits
of metal getting loose in the engine we need to not only replace the oil
cooler but we need to clean out the accusump as well.  I've sent mine back
to the factory for cleaning and rebuild (about $50), but is that something
that can normally be done here at home?

I like how the smaller ones fit. I usually use two quart, and it's more than
enough. I may have to try the 1 1/2 quart barebones seventy buck moroso in
the
TR3 I'm building. Looks nice and compact, and I'd like to fit a remote gauge
anyway.
