Detroit Diesel Oil Pumps & Lubrication System Components

A reliable oil pump is at the core of every Detroit Diesel engine, ensuring that critical components are lubricated under all operating conditions. Whether you operate a Detroit Diesel 53 Series in a fishing vessel, a 71 Series powering a tugboat, a 92 Series in a generator, a 149 Series in offshore equipment, or a Series 60 in a heavy-duty marine or industrial setting, the oil pump plays a decisive role in keeping your engine running smoothly.

At Diesel Pro Power, we supply high-quality aftermarket Detroit Diesel oil pumps and lubrication system parts, trusted by more than 40,000 satisfied customers in 180+ countries. Our complete catalog ensures you can find the exact oil pump and supporting components for your engine family.

The Role of the Oil Pump in Detroit Diesel Engines

Why the Oil Pump Matters

The oil pump is responsible for circulating pressurized oil throughout the engine. Without it, bearings, pistons, and valvetrain components would quickly wear out. Its primary functions include:

• Lubrication Delivery – Ensures crankshaft, camshaft, pistons, and valve gear receive a steady flow of oil.

• Heat Reduction – Removes excess heat from moving components by circulating oil.

• Contaminant Removal – Works with filters to trap debris and prevent damage.

• System Pressure Regulation – Maintains the correct oil pressure across all RPM ranges.

By maintaining oil circulation, the pump prevents metal-on-metal contact and allows your Detroit Diesel engine to achieve long service life.
