Thats the $64.00 question, I guess. These oil pumps are so basic, it would be hard to believe there was something wrong with it. I removed the cover plate, it has almost no wear showing where the rotors spin. I mean, you can see the faint witness of then spining, but thats it. I need to depth mic the pocket where the rotors spin, I have not done that. I guess it's possible there's excessive clearance between the interior of the pump pocket, and the rotors?
