Plug Blown Out of HPOP

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys:

 

Has anyone seen the plug on the left side of the HPOP blow out? I just helped a guy with one that lost low pressure oil and ICP pressure going down the highway. Towed in, no low oil, no ICP. The LP pump and relief valve looked fine, so I had him pull the cooler and check it for debris. He said the HP oil reservoir would drain out on it's own. Pulling the pump cover showed the plug on the left side between the two mounting bolts missing and gushing oil. This is on the inlet side of the HP pump but subjected to low oil pressure. I hadn't heard of this until now. Anybody else see this?
