SupraHW Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) Morning gents, Got a quick oilpump related question. My whole NA-T build has just been completed. Fitted a GTE oil pump on my motor along with some minor updates on the head. Problem ; Oil filter pops off a few seconds after start up, oil all over the bay, no blockages in the oil channels. Tried different filters but same problem occurs. Question ; Do you guys know if the spring of the pressure relieve valve in a NA oilpump has the same strenght as the ones in the TT oilpump? Share your thoughts please ! Edited August 9, 2016 by SupraHW (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike2JZ Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Are you using a sandwich plate? Last time I saw an NA-T shoot it's oil filter out on startup was because the owner didn't use the correct type of stud when replacing the oil filter housing with a sandwich plate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 TT ones run at a higher pressure as there's a little more volume to circulate in the TT engines with oil squirters etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 As Mike has suggested Seems like you have the wrong type fitting. I'm running a NA block with a TT oil pump with no issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
