Great video and fantastic help I've just took mine off today , a top tip just remove the from transfer axle / box front bolt. Unfortunately there isn't quite enough room to remove the sump so I just jacked up the engine gave me enough room to remove the sump.
How did you aline the oil pump back up correctly.
Thanks
Thank you mate! Yeah we had seen the option of jacking the engine or lifting it slightly with an engine crane to gain access.
In some models the lower crossmember can just be unbolted too, we also could have rebolted ours back in rather than welding, so there are a couple of options.
Fortunately, we could see exactly where the old oil pump was located, so we just fixed it in the same position, but the best/correct thing to do would be to buy a pump alignment tool, they’re cheap and will give you peace of mind when fitting the new pump!
Hi I'm struggling to get a geared oil pump I don't suppose you still have the part number or any help would be great thanks
Gear oil pump part number Op243
My truck in this video is on 125000k now just had second service since doing this job and she is still going strong also had it remapped 💪
How many hours shop time?
I have the 2012 Ranger that cross member is bolted in. Came out in 2 mins.
If you’ve got a newer one get a crossmember from the wreckers and fit that up with a couple of bolts.
the earlier rangers that crossmember is factory bolted in so you could get 1 from a wreckers with the bolts and crush tubes already in.
I’m a constant watcher 👍🏻 I need my fix of cars not getting finished 😮😂
i have seen 2 failures of oil pumps due to negligence on mechanics behalf's, taking to long on oil changes.
i seen 50-60 of the 3.2L engines crack/hole in piston 3, seen atleast 20-30 seize due to EGR cooler failure.
i have worked for ford and mazda for years now.
Ive got a 2015 2.2 Ranger and I'm religious about oil changes. I've got 75,000 kms on the clock, should I change the oil pump soon?
Was looking to buy a bt50 from a friend and this just told me to stay far away from any of the newer ford or mazda trucks.
Hi @benvolio9 what causes the hole/crack in piston 3? I think mine might’ve just done it
certainly love the camera dont ya's , would rather be looking at the car and its parts in focus if ya dont mind
Surely bolting cross member back on rather than welding is a no brainer rather than an option 🤔
It is mate but I just welded it as that what it was from factory but you’re right bolting is better incase you ever need to remove
Nice one Dave top class work
Thanks mate, appreciate it 👊🏽
Sunday morning viewing, great work 👍👍😁
Good vid fellas, good fun aswell
Hi there retro rust hear again , just so you know you don’t need to change the oil Pump , I work at ford dealer there’s a procedure if engines left to long with no oil in so it’s all good ;)
Hi mate hope your good was there a problem with the old style pump as when I removed mine all looked good and I only changed it for peace of mind as I was keeping the truck 👍 I also have a 2015 2.2 transit is there any issues with them
Wanna share it? Hahah
A procedure ? Does it work after the engine blows ?
@@stephenharris1662 no Lmao
@@retrorust3395 whats the procedure??
I have the 2012 ones and it’s came from factory bolted in not welded
If you have a prob priming old style pump I've heard you can maually prime by oil filter housing filling
How the hell do you fill the oil filter housing ? It's on its side
The ranger has a bigger potential disaster, which is the egr ruptures and coolant expelled out the exhaust. Blank egr and bypass the cooler with coolant hoses.
Have fitted a egr blank on this as I was having problems with it opening under throttle
What’s the part number for that pickup
Don’t know part number unfortunately but it’s a 2015 2.2
How many shop hours?
Hi mate great work my oil pump has gone in my 2.2 ranger and been advised camrod bearings need doing aswell is it worth the fix or jist biy a new engine
You might get away with putting a new pump on if you turned it off in time as they don’t last long with no oil pressure put and see how it runs if it sounds like a bag of spanner’s it’s new engine time as it be more sensible starting fresh as you would need to fully strip your old engine to check to see what’s damaged
Dave great job , stokeys has no faith 🤗
Nice one mate I did tell him I had it 🙌🏽
One thing that strikes me as strange, is that many of the UK groups I follow for Rangers mention this problem. But it doesn't seem to be an issue with Rangers in Australia and South East Asia. I don't know if its a climate thing, or if the UK had oil pumps from a different factory?
Some people have said it could be the climate with oil and also constant short runs
@@richardstokes2209 you know, after I made that comment I did more research and I did find some Australians making videos about the same issue. After that I ordered a geared pump and had it delivered yesterday. Found the pump online in Thailand was only $70, so I figured why not. I’ll have it installed next time I bring it in for service.

Mine i change every 5k km or 6 months which ever came first
2.2 diesel gen 3.5 model
is this bad
Here for the bants , not oil pumps 😜😂😂👏👏
Where did the revised oil pump come from and how much roughly
Thanks rob
Think it’s off a Citroen relay the original pumps have Citroen/Peugeot/Ford on them but from what I can remember the vain pump was only on the Ford engine and the geared pumps are on the Citroen/Peugeot engines but both have the same mounting and feed designs so they work as a replacement but you obviously have to blank that oil feed on the ranger.
The pump part code is OP243
mine has 285 k km , its a 2015 2.2 tdci, so far so good atm xD
yes, regular oil change at 7k km.
thx guys
345,000 on mine, haven't had it long but as far as I know it's OEM pump. Hopefully not a ticking time bomb. I think regular oil changes and cross fingers....
Morning gents, Sunday morning gem
Morning mate 👍
Does Dave ever wear pants? 😂. Nice to see one leaving the garage today too 😂
Nah mate I’m to hard for that 💪🏽🤣
I didn’t see you use the chain alignment tool to make sure the new oil pump is perfectly square and aligned with the drive cog therefore making the chain run true . Good job anyway 👍
Yes wasn’t aware of this until some people’s comments i lined it up the best way I could and it’s still going strong so must be near anuff 👍
Great as ever lads.👌
When you grind it off can you not just put it back on with stainless steel bolts instead of welding it back on?
Yes you can
Don't use stainless steel with mild steel it causes galvanic corrosion especially with water and salt present. Use std ht 8.8 bolts.
I've done same steps, dropped the cross member out, dropped the transfer case, unbolted the oil pan, but the sealant is extremely hard to break apart in-situ. Can't get at it. You skipped that bit in the video, any tips?
It will come off just go round it with a flat chisel to separate the sump from and engine block
The thing with the new gear pump is that it would generate way higher pressure, from 50+psi to 80psi. The oil seals in the engine may not last as long.
On 121000 miles now and all is all good going to do another service
nice vid chaps !
Dave + Grinder always go together ❤️ 😄
Dave and his white socks lol
It’s my trade mark mate 😜
I change oil every 10,000kms, i would never go 15,000
Yes left it far to long
Are these gear pumps noisy? After fitting mine it sounds like a supercharger. I will need to strip back down to investigate?
Some people say they are mine has a small noise when cold but nothing major
Thanks for reply. I guess its just a characteristic of the straight cut gears
Is the pump really such a common issue? I know about EGR and injectors, but first time I hear about the pump.
It is a problem that does happen but some people have mixed opinions on it but the pump is a bad design and they do fail
Good day Gents,where do you buy the mechanical oilpump?
Op243 is the pump code and you can get it from most places just get a well known 👍
Cut it up Dave LOL
Iv had a bit of practice in the chopping game mate 😉🤣
@@daviddddixon7275 bet you have
Hi, were did you buy this pump? Also where did you buy the modified oil pick up pipe?? Many thanks
Pump you can get online and pickup pipe is the original 2.2
Great job lads, just one thing to remeber Cold gal goes on after welding, not before..👌
It was weld through primer mate 👍
That’s no transfer box. It’s the front axle differential.
Your right it’s the front differential but unfortunately we sometimes get mixed up with words for some parts when we I just in the moment filming

Hi. I have a px1 ranger. To disable the injectors to crank engine without starting, which fuse/relay do I need to remove? Cheers
There is a fuse you can pull but I don’t know what one it is you would have to check your manual we just unplugged the injectors and it didn’t put any fault codes
Suprised you haven’t changed the vaporiser glow plug in your exhaust yet rich, very common for failure
There are lots of common problems with these rangers unfortunately but there is a lot sold worldwide so there is always going to be issues with them as there is more of them so you hear more problems making it sound worse then it actually is 👍
Ranger design issues are not just the oil pump , transmission drive plate / trans valve body / torque convertor failure /cracking egr / rear diff plug to low causing diff failures /cruise control failure [ford buyback ] / Poor quality designs everywhere .
Hi all great video what make and where did you purchase the upgraded pump?
The pump code is op243
EBay or motor factors as Ford don’t list the pump for the ranger
The 5 cylinder 3.2 diesel was designed as a traverse mount engine, try replacing the EGR at rear of engine in a Ranger or Mazda BT-50 !
I’ve bypassed it. It was pretty tricky but plenty of people have done it. You have to put two blanking plates in. The egr one is easy but the larger exhaust one is a lot harder but doable.
Likewise, bypassing is better however illegal.
amigo esta bomba que uso es la bomba que trae el ford transit 2.4????
Pump code is op243
What year model ranger is this?
2015 2.2
@@richardstokes2209 Oh, I think Ford fixed the later models. I have a 21 Everest with the 3.2. so far, so good.
So to remove the oil pan you removed the cross member by grinding off the welds (mine doesn't have welds just the four bolts) and by removing the front diff bolt allowing you to slightly lower the front driveshaft? Is there anything else you had to do to give you enough room to get it out? Just want to make sure there's no surprises when I have a go at it.... Cheers
Yes that’s correct is yours a 2.2 or 3.2 as your oil pick up might be different if it’s a 3.2
@@richardstokes2209 I’m more concerned about exactly which bolts/nuts to remove in order to lower the diff/driveshaft enough to clear the sump…
From what I can remember just undo all the diff mounting bolts so it hangs down it will obviously won’t come all the way down because the drive shafts are still attached and that should give you the room to get the sump out like we did but you could completely remove the diff to get more access
@@richardstokes2209 Ok thanks Richard I’ll probably give it a go and let you know how I went. Cheers Greg
Yes mate give it a go it is really not hard if your ok with a spanner you will be fine 👍
Can't watch this anymore.. The "Geezer" just doesn't shut up, is he on coke or something..!? Feel sorry for the other two chaps.

As I understand Ford fitted an upgrade pump to later PX 1 models around 2013 to overcome pump vane disintegration problems, in some vehicles, so early models of the PX1 Rangers were most affected, 2014/15 onwards should have the upgraded pump.
The earlier 3 liter Japanese Mazda diesel engines fitted to Ranger PJ/Pk didn't appear to have oil pump problems unlike Ford Europe's 4 & 5 cylinder 2.2/3.2 diesel engines, there's a message here Ford! .....Let's not even mention Fords Euro design V6 Lion engine and its oiling design faults.
A well serviced Ranger 2.2 or 3 .2 liter can see 300k plus with the upgrade pump however the 10 minute oil change is a pain in the arse.
A friend sadly holed his sump with a broken 'star picket' that pierced his standard sump protection plate loosing most of his oil on a remote outback cattle station, luckily he turned the engine off early, ute was towed to station workshop for welding repairs on sump.
Luckily he was prepared as we must in remote travel and had 2 10 liter packs of 0w40 and drowned the engine, it primed and built pressure and we drained off the excess allowing him to continue working.
Next week's mail order via EBAY from Melbourne brought out a constant flow oil pump and a 3 piece Australian aftermarket H/D 5mm (sump, transfer transmission) bash plates for better under protection.
Min was a 2015 and when we removed original pump it all looked good but we obviously didn’t strip to inspect like you say I think the main problem is the lack of servicing and the the 10 minute window is the big problem on these engines I only did this mod to mine as it needed a service and only cost me the parts and my time so hopefully now by improving the oil pump it will make it a bit more reliable for the future 👍
incorect , 2013 to 2019 or P5AT engines had these bad oil pumps....PX1 and PX2....
Where did.you get the replacement geared pump?
Auto doc pump code op243
@@richardstokes2209 👍
What a bodge job! Bloody hooligans! All you needed to do was take the half shaft off the front diff.
What did we bodge? And the front axle doesn’t have half shafts it has drive shafts and the reason we didn’t remove the differential to do the job because there is just enough room to do the job and saves on a lot more time removing the drive shafts and differential then replacing oils
@@richardstokes2209 You do not need to remove the diff [which you called the transfer case], just the tube that contains the halfshaft, with the half shaft, obviously doing the relevant work at the hub end to allow you to do so. Your method is ridiculous needless butchery.
@@hedydd2what have we butchered then ?
@@richardstokes2209 That’s the point isn’t it. You cannot see that you have done it the hard way with chisels and grinders. No need for it.
Yet you keep telling me all these negative things and not your way you would of done it 🙈🤣
Where do you buy the modified pump from ?
Pump code is op243
Can get the pump from anywhere just need to use that code to get the correct pump
Do Ford actually supply a code OP243 pump or aftermarket, i see conflicting reports saying Rangers after 2014 2015 should be ok because Ford modified them & yet you see 2016 2017 pumps apparently failing, I’m still quite tempted to change it for piece of mind & the pump & a bit of labour is small compared to a new motor. Thanks for the reply Simon 👍
how much did this cost to do ?
Pump is around £80/£100 then service kit is £70/£100 so around £200 in parts
Self correction "Losing' no loosing'
Blocking oil feeds off ?
Think it’s a feed down to the pump well I hope anyway but that’s what you do apparently it’s still running so far so good 😂

So basically they made modified 1 like a supercharger
It’s a fuel pipe to the exhaust to do a dpf burn 🔥
The lack of technical understanding is frightening. The difference between a variable displacement pump and a constant displacement pump is fundamental to the operation and economy of the engine. The problem arises when fitters do not understand that the variable displacement pump will not self prime and therefore the oil change process ( drain, filter change , start refill) must be completed before the oil pump is totally drained, Just requires a bit of thought and preplanning. The advantage of the variable displacement oil pump is reflected in the fuel economy. Sorry guys but these giggling chimps just do not understand what they are doing.
Truck is on 130000 miles now so we must of got something right 😂
Ehehehehehehehehehahahahahahah
Wouldn’t it be better to just bolt it back up so it can be taken back out
Yes your probably right but I just welded it back up as that how it was fitted from factory but it would make life easier to bolt it back in instead to make it easier in future to remove 👍
