Oil Pan and Oil Strainer

Oil Pan and Oil Strainer




- The oil pan consists of an upper oil pan (aluminum die-casting) and a lower oil pan (formed steel plate). The upper oil pan has an integrally mold baffle plate to improve stability of the oil level.
- The oil strainer has a stay whose end is attached to the upper oil pan. The strainer pipe is connected to the upper oil pan using and O-ring. The upper oil pan forms a passage together with the block and liquid gasket, and the passage leads from the block through an O-ring to the rear chain cover, which is connected to the oil pump. The strainer is located close to the bottom at the center of the oil pan where the oil level changes the least.
