ripped6 Donating Members 246 Member For: 13y 8m 28d Gender: Male Posted 18/10/12 09:07 PM Share Posted 18/10/12 09:07 PM For anyone who is interested, 'I've been told' that the best way to replace oil pump gears is to drop both the engine and gearbox out as one. this saves a sh*t load of time unbolting and realigning the engine to the gearbox. supposedly turns a full day job into a 3 hour job for an experienced mechanic. this could be entirely incorrect but if it saves some people some coin then well and good. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82178-to-oil-pump-gears-or-not-to-oil-pump-gearsthat-is-the-question/page/9/#findComment-1311242 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not worth blowing them like I did. Car is sitting outside dead until next week when my tuner could get me in. Don't even want to think about what it's gonna cost me :(just curious, was your oil at normal operating temperature? 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82178-to-oil-pump-gears-or-not-to-oil-pump-gearsthat-is-the-question/page/9/#findComment-1311450 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oil temp was still at normal operating temp too when I did it 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/82178-to-oil-pump-gears-or-not-to-oil-pump-gearsthat-is-the-question/page/9/#findComment-1311480 Share on other sites More sharing options...
