Chevy Impala Oil Pumps & Parts

Lubrication is of key importance for the system with as many crucial moving parts as there are in an internal combustion engine. Without the motor oil lubricating all of the most stressed surfaces, the engine in your Chevy Impala will quickly destroy itself. An oil pump is what provides oil to all of the points that require lubrication. As a part of a wet-sump engine oil system employed by your car, the pump consisting of two meshed gears is located inside the oil pan. Receiving the energy directly from the engine crankshaft, the pump is typically a very sturdy component that leaves pretty much no place for failure.

Normally, the failure of an oil pump is part of a much more considerable misfortune happening to the engine. Once it begins to fail, you have to act quickly, as low oil pressure can result in extensive vehicle damage. Reduced pressure causes engine parts to rub together, increasing engine operational temperature. One more sign telling you that the engine oil pump is about to go bad is noise caused by improperly lubricated engine lifters.
