Oil Starvation

very easy to get to. it's on the bottom of the oil pump facing downward. it really does take only a minute to change. you're right about the accusump; the first time i fired the car up w/ the accusump, i though the gage broke!

Hi there, I've got the 3 new parts, will the engine drain oil once I remove the bolt? Does the engine need to be empty of oil before I do this? Thanks

No and No. The oil is in the sump and has to be picked up by the pump. Just oil the piston before you install.
