 |
|
So, during the cam break in of my rebuilt 2021, I noticed I have an oil leak between my oil pump and case. The oil pump is a Berg full flow with the machined oring.
How do you get it out? With the pressure port blocked off, you can't get both ends of the puller in the pump. I tried doing it with the the one end in the suction side, but it just bends the piece on the puller.
What's the trick?

Did you loosen the M8 nuts above and below the pump?

Is that what you're supposed to do? I thought about it, but was afraid I'd have a leak at the case halves.

Loosen the bolts Glenn mentioned, then remove the drive gear and the 4 pump studs, then you can twist the pump to break the gasket seal. You can modify the puller too so it only locks into the feed port

Thanks Glenn. Worked like a charm. Now leak free.

I have an extra puller that I cut the small (outlet galley) leg off, so it looks like an L not a T. You use the larger end in the feed galley port only, hold a little pressure on it until the nut is tight so it stays put, then keep tightening as normal to pull the pump
