[QUOTE="RePhil, post: 397968, member: 14491"] My oil pump drive shaft is damaged as is the slot in the camshaft gearwheel where it locates. The damage is at one end (driven end) of both sides of the shaft. It would almost appear that it is too short for the job & it is being forced out. However the pump is the correct 26mm for the 4 rivet camshaft & gearwheel. There isn't much end float on the camshaft (0.19mm). I'm not sure if a new pump will not fully cure, but would rather not have to buy a new camshaft aswell. Any ideas why or is this normal for a high mileage engine? (Don't actually know the mileage). I hope you can see it in the pic. [img]http://i1115.photobucket.com/albums/k554/rephil/DSCN3772_zps83c7f993.jpg[/img] Thanks, Phil. [/QUOTE]
