Geo Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Can the oil pump can be changed with the sump on, or will it have to be removed as the pump is fouling on the sump, this is because the pump is larger on the inside compared to the outside face. cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 what is the first sign of the pump on its way out or is there any Usually having the the front main seal keep failing is a pretty sure sign, but i guess you could suffer lower oil pressure, but i doubt it as my pressure was higher than normal yet the pump was fooked.
