OIL PUMP

An oil pump is a critical component of internal combustion engines, responsible for circulating lubricating oil under pressure to the moving parts of the engine, such as bearings, pistons, and camshafts. It ensures proper lubrication and reduces friction and wear, thereby extending the engine's lifespan. Modern oil pumps are often gear or rotor types and are usually driven by the crankshaft. It is crucial for the oil pump to function properly to ensure the engine operates effectively and does not overheat, which could lead to severe damage. Regular maintenance can help prevent oil pump issues.
