The pre-lube pump operates prior to engine cranking to circulate lubricating oil through the engine, which is critical to engine protection at low temperatures when the oil viscosity is high and oil flow characteristics are poor.

00:00:13,458 --> 00:00:18,833
 Pre-lube pump operation is automatic and controlled by the locomotive control system.

00:00:18,833 --> 00:00:26,125
 The pump is a self-priming, positive displacement design that moves at least 30 GPM of oil when operating.

 Although no specific inspection checks are required for the pre-lube pump, a visual inspection is recommended to verify that there are no oil leaks in the piping and piping connections.
