System Notes — LUBRICATION SYSTEM
The lubrication system covers the oil pump, oil cooler, oil filter base, relief valves, dipstick tube, pan and the galleries that distribute oil to every bearing in the engine. It is the system that keeps metal off metal. Failures tend to be either pressure loss — a worn pump, a stuck relief valve, a collapsed filter — or contamination, where sludge and debris circulate and score bearing surfaces. Oil pressure that reads low at idle, a filter that comes out heavy, or oil that turns dark far sooner than usual are the signals. Parts in this group are replaced on measured oil pressure and lab results rather than on interval alone.
