Oil Pump: Reassembly

  1. If pick-up screen and tube assembly was removed, it should be replaced. Loss of press fit could cause an air leak, resulting in loss of oil pressure.
    CAUTION: Use care not to twist, shear or collapse pipe when installing it in pump body.
  2. Position pump in soft-jawed vise. Apply sealer to end of tube. Using Pick-up Tube Installer (J-8369) and soft-faced hammer, tap tube into place. Install pressure regulator valve and related parts.
  3. Install drive gear, shaft and idler gear in pump body and align marks. Install new cover gasket. Reverse disassembly procedure to complete reassembly. Turn drive shaft by hand to check for smooth operation.
