Oil pump replacement Beams 3S-GE ST215 Caldina...

Postby peas » Sat Mar 22, 2008 8:25 pm

so I am at the stage where I have the shits with it... I have removed cambelt and other associated bits and have removed all the bolts that you can see looking directly onto the end of the engine. There is a stud poking up from the sump casting area (has a nifty little E-torx fitting on the end... the only fastening with this as far as I have come with this job... Why Toyota did you do somethign so F#@%IN stupid??!!) and i assume that the two coming down from the oil pickup need removing... can't see how but hey... anybody been there done that?

Its a bit of a problem with the beams engines apparently... There were 2 other oil pumps waiting with mine at the dealer!

Most likely you will need to take some or all of the sump off to be able to get the oil pump and pickup off the engine.

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!
