Oil Pump Questions
Hi all, I have had an oil leak up front for some time now. It only leaked when it was cold. So this past week i decided to dive in and find it. I figured while i was in there i would replace the timing belt as well. I now have the entire front of the motor apart. It looks like the drivers side cam seal was leaking a bit. It also looks like the crank seal was leaking pretty good. The oil pump may be leaking as well. My manual and parts book tells me that there is a large "O" ring around the rear of the oil pump. When mine came out there was no "O" ring. It looked like there was a groove around the pump but it definately did not have an "O" ring inside it. There is like a metal ring around it. Sorry, its hard to describe. Anyway I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this. I ordered all the seals for up front and the oil pump shaft seal and "O" ring so I guess I will see what they ship me.
Also, before putting all this back together should I look for anything else while I have it all torn apart??
