Oil pump O ring.-should I do the pump to
Other than the o-ring on my 2001 ex needing replacement.i am due for a trimming belt replacement. I don't have any other oil issues. Is it good practice to change out the oil pump in addition to the o ring. I don't know the longevity of a honda oil pump and I don't want to change it if it doesn't need it. Saves me a bunch if I only have to replace the oring. How durable is the stock oil pump. If I do change it what is a good replacement. Have seen several on eBay for 45 bucks and that's the whole kit.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Reseal only IMO the pumps are damn reliable if the oil has been taken care of all its life. Hondas aren't known for oil pressure problems.
JMHO, YMMV.

I replaced mine with an ebay one. It seems to be going alright for the few hundred miles I've driven it. I failed at fixing the leak though. It is weeping out of the bottom of the timing cover again.
