Hey guys, what's the easiest way to access the oil pump. Mines leaking and the gasket needs replaced.

WTF?

Tzarinque

yeah it sucks, i know.

95dxsir2

do you mean the oil pan? oil pumps don't have a gasket

Tzarinque

my mistake. Well there's oil coming from that general area. It's either squirting out of the oil pump where the orings are or its leaking out the crankshaft front oil seal. There's no easy way to do this is there?

hmmm raise her up than remove the oil pan.

Tzarinque

pump not pan.

so obviously its not the pump, try running the car and see if you can see where it comes out at. clean the area first.

Tzarinque

why is it obviously not the pump. It only leaks when the car is running, oil pumps have pressure in them when the car is on, therefore it's gotta be the pump

do you know where its leaking from? cause without pressure the oil pump wouldn't pump anything anywhere to leak from. oil light on? maybe check up top around cam.
