Oil Pump Installation On
1962-81 Chrysler (Plymouth Dodge) V-8
4.5L, 5.2L, 5.5L & 5.9L (273, 318, 340 & 360 CID) Engines
Improper oil pump installations in the subject engine shave
resulted in serious problems and damage. When installing the oil
pump, make sure the mounting neck is fully inserted in the
mounting hole in the block and remains fully inserted while
mounting bolts are being installed and fully tightened down.
This is particularly true of the outboard mounting bolt, as the
tendency is to let the pump slide out of position while the bolt
is being installed. This error causes the pump to be misaligned
in the block and results in fracture of the mounting neck. this,
in turn, can lead to other serious difficulties such as breakage
of the oil pump hex drive and may eventually cause complete oil
pump failure.
CAUTION: Be sure that the main cap bolt head next to the oil
pump housing is square with the side of the cap as shown in the
diagram below.
