- Part Type: Engine / Lubrication System
Purpose and Role in the Motorcycle (based on the original manual):
The Oil Pump Header is a cornerstone of the Dnepr MT-11's combined-type (forced-feed and splash) lubrication system. Located in the engine crankcase, it houses the oil header gauze, which serves as the primary filtration stage. Its role is to strain the oil before it is sucked into the gear pump (located in the front bearing body) and pushed through the main oil line. Without a functional header and clean gauze, debris can enter the gear pump and centrifuge, leading to a drop in oil pressure—often signaled by the red emergency oil pressure indicator lamp on the dashboard. Maintaining a clean and intact oil pump header is vital to ensuring that the crankshaft and connecting-rod bearings receive a steady flow of purified oil, preventing catastrophic engine failure.
Benefits of Buying:
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to the exact technical specifications of the Dnepr MT-11 for a seamless, leak-free installation.
- Enhanced Engine Protection: High-grade filtration gauze effectively stops metallic shavings and sludge from reaching the pump and centrifuge.
- Restored Oil Pressure: Replacing a clogged or damaged header ensures your gear pump operates at peak efficiency, maintaining the critical pressure range of 0.3 to 0.6 MPa.
