id0111q30025q4
Purpose, Function
• The oil pump suctions the engine oil in the oil pan through the oil strainer and pumps engine oil into the engine.
Construction
• The oil pump is located under the cylinder block (inside the oil pan).
• With the adoption of the chain drive type oil pump, the diameter of the rotor is reduced. As a result, the oil pump drive resistance has been reduced.
• The oil pump consists of the following parts:
• The oil pump has a relief valve which suppresses oil pressure increase of more than the set pressure and reduces oil pump drive resistance.
• When the relief valve is pushed and opened, engine oil flows. As a result, the oil pressure decreases and the oil pump drive resistance is reduced.
