Oil pump relief valve
For those who have swapped springs on the oil pump, is the actual valve itself supposed to drop out? I noticed on my SLP pump, the spring came out but the valve remained inside the bore. Just wanted to know if this was normal. I am trying to determine why my stock oil pump failed so I opened it up to check where the valve was then I compared it to the SLP pump. Both pumps had the valve remain inside the bore even with the spring out. Normal?
