Oil Pump information & part#
(Technical Information)
|
Being the heart of the engine, it is obviously essential that the pump is in prime condition when fitted. Due to robotised manufacture of the commercially produced pumps, tolerances have been opened up to facilitate rapid production and assembly. This has brought about a decline in the effectiveness of the pumps, especially in arduous environments such as racing and fast road work. Oil pressure in...

Testing the Engine Out of the Vehicle
(Restoration)

Our engine had been rebuilt, our ancillaries completed, and our subframes restored, so we decided to combine all the pieces together to try to run our Mini without attaching the body. We just needed a jump box to simulate the battery and a bit of fuel to pull off.
This would also let us know if we’d made any mistakes or had any leaks before we installed the drivetrain into the car. Aft...
