Re: 4.8 oil pump keeps going out
That a very vague description. Not much to go wrong in that pump I suspect that the O-ring is missing or damaged or the pickup tube is cracked or broken

Re: 4.8 oil pump keeps going out
Is it an actual loss of pressure or just the dash gauge showing a loss? (Bad oil pressure sensor)

Re: 4.8 oil pump keeps going out
Have you verified pressure with a mechanical gauge?
Does it knock when it looses oil pressure? How many miles are on it? Is the engine worn out? I have never ever seen an oil pump fail on its own. I have seen debris cause one to fail, but at long as you have a screen in the pick up, that cant really happen. Have you taken apart any of the failed pumps to see what happened to them? |
