1988 - 1989 Ford Bronco II Oil Pump (part#M128)

A:

Yes, it seems the oil pump is wearing out. The first sign of trouble may be a low oil pressure warning light, a drop in the normal reading on you oil pressure gauge (if your car has one), or the appearance of ticking or clattering sounds from your engine. As a rule, most engines only need about 10 PSI of oil pressure for every 1,000 RPM of engine speed. Oil pressure will read higher than normal when a cold engine is first started because the oil is thick. Oil pressure will gradually drop as the engine warms up and the oil thins out. So normal oil pressure on a warm engine cruising down the highway is typically 30 PSI up to 45 PSI. However, I would suggest taking your vehicle to a certified mechanic for a proper diagnosis before buying and having parts installed that may not (solve/be) the problem.

A:

The Oil pump in a 1989 Ford Bronco II is located in the oil pan. Put the drain pan under the oil pan. Unbolt the drain plug on the oil pan and let the oil pan drain out. Reattach the drain plug on the oil pan once the oil has drained. Unbolt the oil pan from the engine with the 3/8-inch ratchet, extension and socket. Drop the pan to reveal the oil pump. Unbolt the pump screen from the end of the pump with the 3/8-inch ratchet and socket. Installation is the reverse process.
