unlikely to be the oil pump, and the chain is very uncommon part to fail, have you checked the oil level?how do you know that no oil is getting up to the head? ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

How often do you change the oil? I have heard of the spray bars and oil ways getting blocked but it seams very uncommon.________________________________________ Team Moonstone� Ph3 GTI6Team Rallye |

Had this before and it had to have the head removed, the one way valve in the cylinder head itself was blocked up, replaced with a new one and put it all back together and it was fine.You will be lucky if you drove it for 6 miles that it hasnt damaged the cylinder head.

how often do you take your oil cap off and look inside the head to look for oil? |

You might be OK, I had a customer drive a good 10 miles with no oil pressure at all, Oil Pump chain snapped as tyhe engine was out of a rolled car and a bit of it got cault in the chain.But swaped over the pump etc, started it up and after a few mins it went back to being quiet, Lucky isn;t a word but I think the oil used helped allot ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |
