lmorris Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 Is it a manual? Yes...but I managed to get it low enough to see in the pan, it's clean. lifter roller bearing... or maybe nut from an injector solenoid? My guess is lifter needle, seen lots. I have a 2005 engine core at my disposal, might swap front covers and see if it runs. In the process of trying to get the pump pieces out of the cover.

lmorris Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 Not exactly sure what went through it, High pressure system holds pressure. Looks too small for a lifter needle bearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Saunoras Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I have also seen several gerotor sets that have foreign object damage unrelated to lifter failure. It's almost impossible to figure out what went through them sometimes. I've only seen 2 broken gear sets and both were in manuals. I think the abrupt engine speed change or perhaps excessive RPM is what can crack them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmorris Posted December 27, 2016 Author Share Posted December 27, 2016 I never found out if anything went through it, but it starts and runs fine with the new pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
