Oil Pump Assembly: Reassembly

  1. Coat pump gears with transmission fluid. Install gears into pump housing, aligning marks made at disassembly. Position drive plate on top of inner gear. Ensure extended hub of drive plate is inserted into shaft opening of housing. Set check ball, with spring, in housing.
  2. Place cover plate over rear of assembly. Compress spring and check ball, taking care not to displace them. Install and tighten cover-to-housing screws. Install thrust washer so that claws on washer face away from piston ring grooves and are engaged on lug on pump housing. See Figure .
  3. Install large and small sealing rings with ends locked together. To check for proper oil pump operation, insert pump shaft into oil pump and rotate gears. Pump assembly must rotate freely, with no sticking or binding.
