Oil & Fuel Ford 1700 oil pump remove and replace

[coenj]

Yes, I have thought about the idea that other problems besides the pump may be the root cause of the low pressure . . . . . I'm just trying to ignore those thoughts for now.

Photos below. Cam gear has been removed. 5th photo showing oil pump also shows pressure relief assembly. 4th photo is closeup of camshaft - drive gear has been removed - remaining gear is for the tach - some bolts in backplate, including the one thru oil tube, have already been removed. Third shot is looking up from under oil pan. Last photo shows oil pump body.

Coeng,


Good pics. on the last one I see the lip you were talking about. I'm curious what the purpose of the lip is. it does not appear to be part of the oil pan. Were you able to take out the pump case out?

I see you got the big nut off of the cam, what method did you use to do it?

JC,

Don't have the pump housing out yet. Plan to remove one drive gear at a time, remove fasteners behind that gear holding the backplate (and its associated lip), and re-install same gear to avoid timing difficulties.

Hello, I just joined the group and couldn't figure out how to post my question, so I'm sorry for the way I done it. Could someone show me a picture of the timing gears on the front of the engine of the Ford 1700? I am going to rebuild mine and haven't removed the gears yet, I was going to take a picture of them before removing them but looks like someone has added some marks. If you would rather send them to my email address it is bstone67@nexband.com Thanks David Jones
