Troubleshooting

Verify the oil pump is correctly installed, the oil pickup tube is properly seated and not blocked, and the oil level is adequate. Ensure the correct grade of oil has been used. Consult a qualified technician.
Audible knocking or ticking noises from the engine
This could indicate insufficient oil supply due to a faulty pump, blockage, or low oil level. Check oil level immediately and inspect the pump and pickup tube for obstructions. Professional diagnosis is recommended.
Engine overheating
Inadequate lubrication from a failing oil pump can contribute to overheating. Check oil level and condition. If the pump is suspected, it should be replaced by a qualified technician.
