Where is the car oil pump located?
1 Answers
Automobile oil pumps are generally installed inside the engine, typically located within the oil pan. By removing the oil pan, you can see the oil pump, which is connected to a filter screen at its lower part. The section above the filter screen constitutes the oil pump. Relevant introductions are as follows: 1. Fuel pump: Currently, in most vehicle models, the fuel pump is installed inside the fuel tank and is electrically driven. The fuel pump consists of three parts: the pump body, the permanent magnet motor, and the housing. When powered, the permanent magnet motor drives the pump body to rotate, sucking fuel in from the inlet, passing it through the internal part of the electric fuel pump, and then pressing it out from the outlet to supply the fuel system. The fuel flowing through the electric fuel pump cools the armature of the permanent magnet motor, hence it is also known as a wet fuel pump. 2. The role of the oil pump in the lubrication system: The function of the oil pump is to raise the oil to a certain pressure and then forcibly deliver it to the moving surfaces of various engine components.
