## 🔌 Function

The oil pump wheel is a driven gear within the engine oil pump assembly that converts drive rotation into pumping action. This maintains the oil pressure and flow needed to lubricate bearings, pistons and other internal engine components.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Low or fluctuating oil pressure readings at the gauge or warning lamp
-   Whining, grinding or ticking noise from the front or lower engine area
-   Worn, chipped or missing gear teeth found during oil pump inspection
-   Metallic debris or bronze/steel particles in the oil filter or sump
-   Slow oil pressure build-up after starting, particularly when the engine is cold

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Work clean: anything left in the pump or its housing goes straight into the oil galleries
-   Inspect the wear faces, the housing and the mating gear for scoring, chipped or pitted teeth and metal pick-up, and renew the gears as a pair rather than putting a new wheel against a worn one
-   Measure the running clearances between the wheel, its housing and the cover and compare them with the figures in the workshop manual for your engine — the pump only makes pressure while they are within limits
-   Oil the wheel and housing on assembly and prime the pump as the manual directs so it picks up rather than running dry on first start
-   Fit a new gasket or seal at the cover, then watch oil pressure on start-up and shut down at once if it does not come up
