Engine Oil Pump Overhaul

  1. Check the pump housing-to-outer rotor radial clearance between the outer rotor (A) and the pump housing (B). If the pump housing-to-outer rotor radial clearance exceeds the service limit, replace the oil pump assembly.

    Pump Housing-to-Outer Rotor Radial Clearance

    Standard (New):
    0.100−0.175 mm (0.0039−0.0069 in.)
    Service Limit:
    0.20 mm (0.008 in.)

  1. Inspect both rotors and the pump housing for scoring or other damage. Replace the parts, if necessary.
  1. Check that the oil pump turns freely.
