Chris Wilson Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 Just realised, note we have a good photo of how much bigger Nissan made the oil pump rotor leakage drain on the (stock) Skyline pump, compared to the tiddly thing on a Supra *JZ-GT* pump? The second pic shows how the aftermarket Tomei race pump has even bigger leakage drain area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 All `cos one little 10mm bolt stretched, things tend to snowball after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 * Stupid question alert * How did you diagnose that as the route cause?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 I see a lot of blown up engines and you get good at establishing the cause One rod bolt is till intact, the other has a failure typical of stretch, either due to fatigue or over revving. It's a classic case, actually Not that that helps my finances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
