The problem with the pump tappet

The well-known problem of the pump tappet is the localized friction and shear force. When the pump tappet is worn, the camshaft is irreparably damaged. Due to the damaged surface, the camshaft must be completely replaced. In the worst case, metal shavings can be created by this defect and fall into the oil pan. The oil pump and the balance shaft module are located there. Damage to these components caused by this can mean a total engine failure. In addition, the guide of the pump plunger wears and leaks can occur in the high-pressure pump. When this happens, fuel enters the oil circuit and the oil loses its lubricating properties. Higher fuel consumption and the smell of fuel in the oil are the first symptoms and can lead all the way to bearing damage on the conrods.
