Oil Pump, Check

  Remove

1.   Remove oil pump
2.   Clean sealing surfaces and remove gasket remnants.
3.   Check oil pump housing cover, cylinder block and rotors for damage
4.   The bearing end play of the rotors in the oil pump housing is measured with a straight edge and feeler gauge on the oil pump housing cover (see figure I) and on the cylinder block (see fig. II) and calculated mathematically.

Example:

I

 

2.120 mm

II

-

1.980 mm

 

=

0.140 mm

Permissible bearing end play of the rotors in the oil pump housing:

Play on installation

0.035 - 0.100 mm

Wear limit

0.150 mm

Object Number: 2417309  Size: DEFAULT


5.   The radial bearing clearance of the pump shaft in the cylinder block is measured with a micrometer (see figure I) and a precision internal measuring device (see figure II) and calculated mathematically

Example:

I

 

16.015 mm

II

-

15.900 mm

 

=

0.115 mm

Permissible radial bearing clearance of the oil pump shaft in the cylinder block:

Play on installation

0.040 - 0.125 mm

Wear limit

0.200 mm

6.   Measure clearance between external rotor and cylinder block with feeler gauge (see figure III)

Permissible clearance between external rotor and cylinder block

Play on installation

0.240 - 0.360 mm

Wear limit

0.400 mm

Object Number: 2417310  Size: DEFAULT


7.   Check backlash of rotors with feeler gauge (see fig. I)

Permissible rotor backlash

Play on installation

0.130 - 0.150 mm

Wear limit

0.200 mm

Note:   If the wear limit of one or more components is reached, the oil pump is to be replaced complete, consisting of the inner rotor, outer rotor and oil pump housing cover.
