Cleaning Oil Pickup

Recommended Posts

soundguy

Thinking of checking my oil pick up and making sure it's clean.

 

Once the sump is dropped, what's the process - can the pick up be disassembled without removing the whole pump, or can the pick up be cleaned enough to make a difference while it's still in place?

Unbolt the pickup from the pump body. Be careful not to loose spring and piston. Carefully bend the tabs back just enough to allow the screen to fall out. Anneal the tabs before reassembly so they don't fracture when you bend them back.

Thanks for the clear guide Peter, will make sure I've got enough gas in the torch for reassembly.
