Essential Engine Lubrication Component 🚗

The oil pump assembly is vital for maintaining your engine’s health. It circulates engine oil under pressure to bearings, pistons, and camshaft, ensuring all moving parts are lubricated. This lubrication reduces friction and wear, extending the life of your engine components.

How It Operates

Driven by the crankshaft, the pump draws oil from the pan and delivers it throughout the engine block. A properly functioning pump maintains consistent oil pressure, which is critical for both performance and protection during high-speed or long-distance drives.

Risks of Failure

If this part fails, oil will not flow correctly, leading to insufficient lubrication. Warning signs include low oil pressure, noisy lifters, or engine knocking. The ultimate risk is severe engine damage or complete engine seizure, making timely replacement crucial.
