Alan, I=E2=80=99m not sure I understand what you are doing to your oil =
pump, however I suggest you remove all of the scores you=E2=80=99ll find =
on that cap. A flat surface is best ( I use a piece of glass ) and some =
emery cloth with lots of oil. Work the scored surface back and forth =
with even pressure adding oil as needed until you=E2=80=99ve worked all =
of the scores out of the surface. You can start with coarse emery and =
finer once the deep scores are removed. Check all the clearances and if =
replacing the internals be certain the gear is pinned to the shaft as =
there have been failures of replacement pumps. Frankly try to reuse your =
original pump internals. It doesn't seem possible that oil pressure can =
be lost via those scores in the bottom plate but from experience loss =
does occur there.=20

I=E2=80=99m not familiar with a replacement gauze =
=E2=80=9Cfilter=E2=80=9D screen but think it may not be a good idea, the =
screen does a fine job and the oil filter does the rest.=20

I am about to disassemble my oil pump on 4 cyl. TR3 motor, & replace the =
oil pump  cap (with gauze filter) on to the bottom of the pump body.=20

=20

When I fit the new oil pump  cap to the pump body:=20
is there a gasket to go there? ( I don't think there is, but just =
checking)=20
do I use any sealer between the cap & body?

what torque for the bolts holding it on?



Randall can you advise? anyone?

thanks=20
