Ball bearings in my oil screen!
Hello,
I posted this under a different post but now have a more specific question. Where could the 12 small, 3mm, ball bearings which I found in my '79 300td oil pump strainer have come from? There is also a part of their retainer in there. The size of the retainer would point to the bearing belonging to a shaft around 3/8"' in diameter. The vacuum pump has been suggested. Any other ideas of how ball bearings got into my engine oil? |
The vacuum pump is the only part in the engine with ball bearings.

Nice to have cool, experienced heads on this forum. If I found ball bearings in my oil I would freak!
