After swapping in the other tcase Monday, I noticed there might be a leak on my oil pump. The larger, set-screw looking deal with the hex key end on it. It's the biggest bolt-like thing on the pump and I suspect it's on the high pressure side.
Service manual has nothing on it. All oil pressure topics are power steering related.
If this is leaking...
- Is it as simple as removing it, applying teflon paste or loctite and threading it back in tight?
- Will removing this result in all the oil draining out on me (in which case, prepare for oil change)?
- I know this is risky business, but can it be tightened and trusted for another couple weeks (until oil change time)?
Thanks.
