• The engine oil in the main oil gallery lubricates the engine components in the following ways. Main bearing and connecting rod bearing Valve mechanism • The engine oil flows from the main oil gallery to the oil passages in the cylinder head to lubricate every journal on the camshaft, and then returns to the… Read More »
• When the pressure of the engine oil to the main oil gallery drops below the specified level, an electrical contact inside the engine oil pressure switch closes. • This causes a warning lamp on the meter cluster to illuminate and notify the operator of the excessive pressure drop.
• This oil filter is a spin-on paper-filter type that incorporates both a bypass filter and a full-flow filter. • A bypass valve is installed in the lower part of the oil filter. When the filter elements are clogged, this valve opens to let the engine oil bypass the filter elements and flow directly to… Read More »
Bypass valve • When the engine oil is cool and its viscosity is high, or when the oil cooler element becomes clogged and restricts the flow of the engine oil, the bypass valve opens to let the engine oil bypass the oil cooler and flow directly to the oil filter. Regulator valve • When the… Read More »
