frozenxr6t Member 140 Member For: 10y 10m 9d Posted 27/12/15 05:33 AM Author Share Posted 27/12/15 05:33 AM Yeah I'm more after do it once do it right fix, there may we'll be nothing major wrong with my engine, it ran for max 10secs after light come on by the time I could pull over. I'm only chasing 600hp max ever so whatever my best option is I'll go with it. I want reliable 600hp but Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91548-oil-pump-gear-failure-boo/page/3/#findComment-1575077 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worse case scenario is I have just bought the new pump and gears for the new engine if needed???

Not hard to remove the big end caps and check the bearing when you remove the old pump housing and gears If your big ends survived it will be all good 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91548-oil-pump-gear-failure-boo/page/3/#findComment-1575415 Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozenxr6t Member 140 Member For: 10y 10m 9d Posted 30/12/15 11:51 AM Author Share Posted 30/12/15 11:51 AM Yeah I think whilst it's off we will check bearings also. If it's stuffed it's going to cms next year sometime or sadly maybe the year after all depends on the house renovation progress. Atomic oil pump is better in every way type it in on youtube they give you a run down 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91548-oil-pump-gear-failure-boo/page/3/#findComment-1575439 Share on other sites More sharing options...
