TOH, I have a question about an 8N oil pump rebuild please.
1. The clearance between the pump gears and the housing is .002. Someplaces it is .003 but it is tight fit. Will new gears take up some of that slack?
2. the bushing is out of round. .570 one way & .566 90 degree from that. The shaft is consistently .562 + or - a half a freckle. I assume with that amount of clearance it would be a wonder it worked at all when hot? 9/16th gears.
The 3/4 gear change out is not an option at this time.
