How to increase oil pressure

Knowledge Base Hits: 66

Low level of pressure of oil in the lubrication system can lead to serious accident because of sliding bearings in engine connecting rods. Low pressure can be caused by incorrect type and a type of the applied oil or wear and breakage of details of the lubrication system of the engine. It is correct to define and remove the cause of this phenomenon it is possible in several ways.

Instruction

1. For definition of the exact reason of low level of low pressure of oil in the engine first of all change the sensor of emergency pressure of oil. If the new sensor shows low pressure in the engine lubrication system, replace the oil fine filter. For this purpose dress on a filter canister the device for replacement of the filter in the form of a belt loop with a lever clip and, rotating it the filter, turn off it. Twist the new filter.

2. If pressure of oil was not normalized, by means of a wrench turn off a drain stopper in an engine case pallet. Merge all oil. Turn off a pallet. Attentively examine the intaking tube going to the oil pump of the engine. At suspicion on existence of cracks in it or detection of scrapes on tube walls, turn off it and carefully check integrity of its walls. Through the damaged walls of a zabornik of oil there can be an air suction, at the same time volume of the oil pumped by the pump decreases and respectively its pressure decreases. If necessary repair. At impossibility of repair – replace. Then check density of an adherence to the pump of a final branch pipe via which oil under pressure comes to the engine lubrication system.

3. Replace the oil pump with obviously serviceable. Fasten a pallet to an engine case. Fill in new oil to the level of the top mark in the measuring probe. If at averages and the increased engine speed pressure of oil returns to normal (especially considerably on the cold engine), check whether there corresponds the oil which is filled in in the engine to the type recommended for your engine and whether it corresponds to climatic conditions of your region.

4. If after these works pressure of oil is not restored, means the wear of inserts of bearings of sliding in connecting rods is high and they demand replacement.
