Oil pump

I was wondering where the oil pump is located on a 99 malibu 3.1 V6. Is it internal or external. How much screwing around is it to replace it.


Thanks for the help

Re: Oil pump

It is internal and you will have to drop the oil pan to get to it.

He needs to get a pressure gage on the engine and see what is what, the problem would never be simply the pump, something internal is wrong.
