Engine Lubrication Description

The oil pump is of a trochoid type, and mounted on the
crankshaft. Oil is drawn up through the oil pump strainer
and passed through the pump to the oil filter.
The filtered oil flows into two paths in cylinder block.
In one path, oil reaches the crankshaft journal bearings.
Oil from the crankshaft journal bearings is supplied to
the connecting rod bearings by means of intersecting
passages drilled in the crankshaft, and then injected
from the big end of connecting rod to lubricate piston,
rings and cylinder wall.
In the other path oil goes up to the cylinder head and
lubricates valves and camshafts, etc., after passing
through the internal oilway of camshafts.
An oil relief valve is provided on the oil pump. This valve
starts relieving oil pressure when the pressure exceeds
about 400 kPa (4.0 kg/cm
2 , 56.9 psi).
