Where is the pressure relief valve on a car?
oil pump housing
Modern vehicles include the pressure relief valve in the oil pump housing which can be found inside the engine behind the timing cover or the oil pan.
Are Z31s fast?
It was the fastest car out of Japan, capable of 153 mph (246 km/h) speeds, as tested by Motor Trend with the electronic speed limiter disabled. A total of 1,002 Shiro Special Z31s were produced for the U.S. market between January and March 1988.
Where is the relief valve on a Nissan Navara?
It will be a high pressure condition followed by a low pressure condition when the relief valve opens. The relief valve is located on the end of the fuel rail toward the rear of the engine. (see image left) To test the relief valve, remove the relief hose (as indicated), place another hose onto the relief valve and direct it into a container.
Why does my Nissan Navara have low fuel pressure?
Common causes are the SCV and the fuel pressure relief valve. These can cause low fuel pressure and stalling. The fuel pressure relief valve, will open if fuel pressure becomes too high. This can happen if the scv is failing and also if an aftermarket performance chip is installed on the car.
What happens when a pressure relief valve is stuck?
• A pressure relief valve that is stuck open can allow too much oil to bleed off. This results in a lack of oil pressure and catastrophic engine damage. • A valve stuck closed will result in excessive oil pressure. This can blow out the oil galley plugs in the engine block.
What happens when the oil pump relief valve fails?
This allows oil to flow back into the crankcase preventing excessive oil pressure. The spring tension of the relief valve determines the maximum oil pressure. Oil pump pressure relief valves can fail in either the open or closed position. This can cause damage to the engine oil filter and to the engine itself.

What is the pressure relief valve on a diesel?
The red circled item is the rail pressure relief valve. The green circled item is a banjo bolt. Hold on a sec, spraying brake clean down the snorkel does nothing to prove timing. Timing on a diesel is either done by the fuel pump or, as with the commonrails, the injectors. There are no spark plugs, so the brake clean-timing theory doesn’t work.
