Engine Lubrication: Description and Operation
ENGINE LUBRICATION
The lubrication system is a full-flow filtration, pressure feed type. The oil pump body is mounted to the engine block. The pump inner rotor is driven by the crankshaft. A structural windage tray is used to increase power by minimizing oil windage at high engine RPM.
ENGINE LUBRICATION SYSTEM
The lubrication system is a full flow filtration pressure feed type. Oil from the oil pan is pumped by a geroter type oil pump directly, coupled to the crankshaft. Oil pressure is controlled by a relief valve, mounted inside the oil pump housing.
