Acura Legend Oil Pump
The Acura Legend Oil Pump drives pressurized oil to bearings, pistons and the camshaft so that the V6 remains smooth. Across the model years, each generation of Acura Legend retains the crank driven design, using meshed gears to draw oil from the sump, through the filter and into galleries as revs build. Most cars use the direct drive style of Oil Pump surrounding their crank, while some versions use gear or chain drive Oil Pump units mounted next to the crank, both of which provide the same steady flow of oil. Direct drive maintains alignment tight, whereas gear or chain drive adds mounting flexibility but requires close checks of sprockets, gears and the driveshaft hex to prevent pressure loss. When a Legend displays low pressure, owners or dealers check for housing wear, gear clearances and test the oil pressure relief valve because when an Oil Pump part or pickup screen is stuck, the bearings can starve very quickly. Dash gauges and warning lights on every Acura tell pressure that should rise approximately 10 psi for every 1,000 RPM. Routine oil and filter changes allow the Acura engine and its faithful Legend Oil Pump to keep metal parts safely separated.

Acura Legend Oil Pump Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to Properly Remove and Reinstall the Oil Pump on an Acura Legend?A:To remove the oil cooler, start by taking off the Timing Belt and crankshaft sprocket while keeping the Engine Mount connected at the timing belt end for support; it's not necessary to completely remove the belt. Next, detach the Oil Pan and oil pickup screen, ensuring to remove the oil level sensor on LS models. Remove the bolts to detach the oil pump from the engine, using a screwdriver to pry carefully between the main bearing cap and the pump body if needed. Use a large Phillips screwdriver to take out the screws holding the body cover to the rear of the oil pump, then lift the cover off to inspect the pump rotors for any wear or damage, replacing the pump if necessary. Clean any old sealant from the pump body and engine block with a scraper, being cautious not to damage the aluminum. For installation, replace the old crankshaft oil seal and apply moly-base grease to the seal lip. Pack the pump cavity with petroleum jelly and install the cover, tightening the screws securely in a criss-cross pattern. Clean the gasket surfaces with acetone or lacquer thinner to remove all oil traces, then apply a bead of sealant to the oil pump flange and bolt, ensuring parts are assembled within five minutes to avoid reapplication. If the oil pass pipe was removed, position it for installation with a new seal. Engage the oil pump drive rotor with the crankshaft and slide the pump into place, then install the pump mounting bolts in their original locations, tightening them in a criss-cross pattern. Using a new O-ring, install the oil pickup screen and tighten the fasteners. Reinstall the remaining parts in reverse order, add oil, start the engine, and check for oil leaks and pressure, followed by rechecking the engine oil level.
