Re: B18U/B20Fchain driven oil pump engines?

Wow, that's easy earned! I'm used to lower prices at the R dealer, this time it's the otherway round. Maybe the oilpump is cheaper at the R dealer, though I'm not sure if the 13gear pump is a pure Volvo upgrade. I'm also not sure about 13 gear pump, I think top of the line Renault engines(F7R 700/7...

Re: B18U/B20Fchain driven oil pump engines?

Great news people!!! I've been at Volvo today and ordered this two bearings. :D Price for one is 11€ so 22€ in total. That's less than 20 pounds. I think that's proper bargain compared to 190€ at Renault. Oil pump is somewhere around 200€ at Volvo.

Cheers for all the help. :hopping:

Re: B18U/B20Fchain driven oil pump engines?

Hi David, It is rare that a bearing is specific to an engine, more likely an engine designer looks through a catalogue of bearings and says that one will do. A good engine rebuilders should be able to find a generic bearing to suit. Take the shaft and bearing (and maybe the block) and they should b...

Re: B18U/B20Fchain driven oil pump engines?

Thanks for reply. I must admit that pictures up there are not mine. Pump itself isn't a problem I know that, it's just that I want to properly rebuild my engine without having spend big money on two bearings. So none of B18 or B20 engines used in 400 series had a chain driven oil pump? Can anyone co...

Hello! My name is David and I'm more into Renaults really(I hope you won't mind that), but I do love Volvo 480 series. As said in the thread title I'm interested to know if any of the above or any else 440/460/480 series B18/B20 engines have chain driven oil pump? The reason I'm asking that are the ...
