The Lubricating Oil Pump is a component of the engine that provides a steady flow of oil to lubricate the moving parts of the engine, such as bearings and pistons. It is typically driven by a gear or chain connected to the crankshaft. The pump draws oil from the oil pan and distributes it through channels in the engine block and cylinder head, ensuring that all components receive adequate lubrication. The Lubricating Oil Pump is essential for maintaining proper engine performance and preventing wear and damage due to friction.
