how hard is it to replace oil pump in humvee?

The first question is, why do you think you need an oil pump? They don't wear out.

not sure I will just trying to get info. I have some knocking going on and oil pressure gauge in the 10-15 psi when warm. I will be testing the oil pressure at the sender. it runs good going down the road though.

10-15at idle? Is completely normal…

definitely get a mechanical gauge and check oil pressure that way. The military gauges are pretty bad, and should only be used as reference after you get readings from real gauges.

Yea ours is the same way, makes me nervous when any engine I’m behind isn’t showing 30 psi or better at idle. But some are just fine for many miles like that.

As RWH said it is quite normal, replacing an oil pump that is not defective is not going to change that.

Rule of thumb is 10PSI per 1K RPM..do the math
