1999 DODGE DURANGO Oil pump

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine INSTALLATION
Thoroughly clean inside of cup plug hole in cylin-
der block or head. Be sure to remove old sealer.
Be certain the new plug is cleaned of all oil or
grease.
(1) Coat edges of plug and core hole with Mopart
Gasket Maker, or equivalent.
CAUTION: DO NOT drive cup plug into the casting,
as restricted coolant flow can result and cause seri-
ous engine problems.
(2) Using proper plug drive, drive cup plug into
hole. The sharp edge of the plug should be at least
0.50 mm (0.020 in.) inside the lead-in chamfer.
(3) It is not necessary to wait for curing of the
sealant. The cooling system can be filled and the
vehicle placed in service immediately.
DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY
OIL PUMP
DISASSEMBLE
(1) Remove the relief valve as follows:
(a) Remove cotter pin. Drill a 3.175 mm (1/8
inch) hole into the relief valve retainer cap and
insert a self-threading sheet metal screw.
(b) Clamp screw into a vise and while support-
ing oil pump, remove cap by tapping pump body
using a soft hammer. Discard retainer cap and
remove spring and relief valve (Fig. 81).(2) Remove oil pump cover (Fig. 82).
(3) Remove pump outer rotor and inner rotor with
shaft (Fig. 82).
(4) Wash all parts in a suitable solvent and inspect
carefully for damage or wear.

(1) Install pump rotors and shaft, using new parts
as required.
(2) Position the oil pump cover onto the pump
body. Tighten cover bolts to 11 N´m (95 in. lbs.)
torque.
(3) Install the relief valve and spring. Insert the
cotter pin.
(4) Tap on a new retainer cap.
(5) Prime oil pump before installation by filling
rotor cavity with engine oil.
CLEANING AND INSPECTION
CYLINDER HEAD COVER
CLEANING
Clean cylinder head cover gasket surface.
Clean head rail, if necessary.
INSPECTION
Inspect cover for distortion and straighten, if nec-
essary.
Check the gasket for use in head cover installation.
If damaged, use a new gasket.
CYLINDER HEAD ASSEMBLY
CLEANING
Clean all surfaces of cylinder block and cylinder
heads.
Clean cylinder block front and rear gasket surfaces
using a suitable solvent.
INSPECTION
Inspect all surfaces with a straightedge if there is
any reason to suspect leakage. If out-of-flatness
exceeds 0.00075 mm/mm (0.00075 inch/inch) times
the span length in inches in any direction, either
replace head or lightly machine the head surface.
FOR EXAMPLE:A 305 mm (12 inch) span is
0.102 mm (0.004 inch) out-of-flat. The allowable out-
of-flat is 305 X 0.00075 (12 X 0.00075) equals 0.23
mm (0.009 inch). This amount of out-of-flat is accept-
able.
The cylinder head surface finish should be
1.78-3.00 microns (70-125 microinches).
PISTON AND CONNECTING ROD ASSEMBLY
INSPECTION
Check the crankshaft connecting rod journal for
excessive wear, taper and scoring.
Check the cylinder block bore for out-of-round,
taper, scoring and scuffing.Check the pistons for taper and elliptical shape
before they are fitted into the cylinder bore (Fig. 83).
OIL PAN
CLEANING
Clean the block and pan gasket surfaces.
Trim or remove excess sealant film in the rear
main cap oil pan gasket groove.DO NOT remove
the sealant inside the rear main cap slots.
If present, trim excess sealant from inside the
engine.
Clean oil pan in solvent and wipe dry with a clean
cloth.
Clean oil screen and pipe thoroughly in clean sol-
vent. Inspect condition of screen.
INSPECTION
Inspect oil drain plug and plug hole for stripped or
damaged threads. Repair as necessary.
Inspect oil pan mounting flange for bends or distor-
tion. Straighten flange, if necessary.
OIL PUMP
INSPECTION
Mating surface of the oil pump cover should be
smooth. Replace pump assembly if cover is scratched
or grooved.
Lay a straightedge across the pump cover surface
(Fig. 84). If a 0.038 mm (0.0015 inch) feeler gauge
can be inserted between cover and straightedge,
pump assembly should be replaced.

If outer rotor thickness measures 20.9 mm (0.825
inch) or less or if the diameter is 62.7 mm (2.469
inches) or less, replace outer rotor (Fig. 85).
If inner rotor measures 20.9 mm (0.825 inch) or
less, replace inner rotor and shaft assembly (Fig. 86).

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Slide outer rotor into pump body. Press rotor to the
side with your fingers and measure clearance
between rotor and pump body (Fig. 87). If clearance
is 0.356 mm (0.014 inch) or more, replace oil pump
assembly.
Install inner rotor and shaft into pump body. If
clearance between inner and outer rotors is 0.203
mm (0.008 inch) or more, replace shaft and both
rotors (Fig. 88).
Place a straightedge across the face of the pump,
between bolt holes. If a feeler gauge of 0.102 mm
(0.004 inch) or more can be inserted between rotors
and the straightedge, replace pump assembly (Fig.
89).Inspect oil pressure relief valve plunger for scoring
and free operation in its bore. Small marks may be
removed with 400-grit wet or dry sandpaper.
The relief valve spring has a free length of approx-
imately 49.5 mm (1.95 inches). The spring should
test between 19.5 and 20.5 pounds when compressed
to 34 mm (1-11/32 inches). Replace spring that fails
to meet these specifications (Fig. 90).
If oil pressure was low and pump is within specifi-
cations, inspect for worn engine bearings or other
reasons for oil pressure loss.
