Wait ~ more detail please ~
You were driving along with the oil pressure light leering redly at you or the gauge on zero then a connecting rod began to bang loudly before it broke ? .
These oil pumps rarely fail , depending on the details of what happened will help greatly .
FWIW , Melling's current Q.C. leaves much to be desired , I've seen many right out of the new box that were worse than the old pump .
It's a very rare thing for me to need a new oil pump .
It's raining again so I guess I'll have to drive my truck in it to - day , rust holes and all ~ I dislike the water dripping onto my feet .
