Oil pressure release valve - 15/03/2019 21:32
Hi, got a big oil leak from the bolt that blanks off the oil pressure release valve on the oil pump body.
It located just above the big alu casting near the bottom pully on the oil pump casting facing front of car. It’s been tightened but still leaking. Can’t seem to find much about what lies behind the bolt ‘cap’.
If this bolt is removed can the pressure relief valve be withdrawn and cleaned/replaced or is it part of the oil pump?
Any help appreciated as changing the oil pump looks a massive job!!! Ta
