Anyone here have access to a Turbo oil pump?
Reply Quote
If so, would you mind getting me some dimensions?  Specifically the center of the drive sprocket to the center of the oil feed hole.

I'm trying to determine if there is a difference (aside from the sprocket) between the Turbo oil pump and normal oil pump.

Different enough that the CXT has its own part number.  15116-MC7-000
MC7 is turbo specific.

CX500 Turbo, GL650I, Two CX650E's, and one Crown Jewel of the CX line- CX650T.

Why do I own five CX/GL bikes? Ask an alcoholic why he drinks.

I show a 15100-415-000 for the standard oil pump and 15100-MC7-000 for the Turbo oil pump...

15116-MC7-000 seems to be the sprocket for the Turbo, according to Service Honda's remote desktop based PartsFiche.

I'm mainly trying to determine if the main body of the oil pump is any different than the standard.  I see that the pickup is different.

Just ordered a turbo oil pump.  I'll find out if there's any differences when it gets here.

Doward, You will find that the oil pump sprocket - on the pump's shaft - is smaller in diameter than the standard oil pump sprocket (by at least two teeth), to get some of the increased oil delivery volume.
The other increase is due to the rotor being deeper.
This means that the normal oil-pump drive chain does NOT fit the turbo - the crankshaft sprocket is the same size as on the normal bike.

Yep, the actual georotor housing is also larger - I've got pics!

That larger housing changes the offset of the oil output to the oil filter, unfortunately.

Also, the Turbo oil pickup from the screen is larger, and longer (most likely due to the turbo's having an actual oil pan?  So ended up cutting and rewelding the turbo outlet to fit the normal CX500 casing

One more note, the sprockets (Turbo vs Standard) ARE NOT interchangeable - the slots are the same width, but the Turbo slot is longer, so I've got to very carefully lengthen the slots tomorrow to get it to fit and still be concentric.
