Oil Pumps

Mopar® Oil Pumps

Skip the new car payment and keep your current vehicle running smoothly with Mopar®'s quality products. Oil pumps circulate pressurized lubricant throughout your engine to protect bearings, pistons, and other moving components from friction damage. These pumps use gear or rotor designs to create consistent pressure and flow regardless of engine speed or operating conditions. Reliable pump operation ensures adequate lubrication reaches all engine components during startup and high-performance operation.

Pump Design and Pressure Generation

Your oil pump features precisely machined gears or rotors that create suction to draw oil from the pan while generating pressure to circulate lubricant through engine passages. Pressure relief valves prevent system damage from excessive pressure while ensuring adequate flow at idle speeds. Internal clearances must remain within specification to maintain proper pressure and prevent bypass flow. Wear from contaminated oil can increase clearances and reduce pump efficiency over time. The oil pans provide the reservoir and pickup location that supplies your pump with clean lubricant for distribution throughout the engine's critical components.

Service Life and Replacement Indicators

Oil pumps typically last 150,000-200,000 miles with proper maintenance but may fail sooner if supplied with contaminated or inadequate lubrication. Warning signs include low oil pressure warnings, engine noise during startup, or pressure fluctuations at idle. Pump failure can cause immediate engine damage due to inadequate lubrication of bearings and other critical components. Regular oil changes with quality filters help prevent pump wear from contamination and extend service life significantly. Popular vehicles like the Renegade and Grand Caravan feature reliable pump designs that provide consistent lubrication throughout their operating range when maintained properly.

Why Choose Genuine Mopar® Oil Pumps

Genuine Mopar® oil pumps provide exact pressure and flow specifications engineered for your engine's lubrication requirements compared to aftermarket alternatives that may not meet performance standards. Our pumps undergo extensive testing to ensure reliability and proper function under all operating conditions.
