Disassembly of Front Cover and Oil Pump Assembly






1. Remove drive and driven rotors:
a. Remove the cover plate screws.

IMPORTANT:
- An impact driver and T-30 TORXk3 are required to break the oil pump screws loose.
- The oil pump cover screws are coated with a sealant to prevent oil leakage. New screws must be installed if they are removed.





b. Mark the drive rotor and driven rotor with a felt pen. Remove the drive rotor and driven rotor.
2. Remove relief valve.

NOTICE: Whenever the oil pressure regulator valve is removed, it must be replaced. The puller jaws will damage the valve sealing seat upon removal.
