INSPECT OIL PUMP ASSEMBLY
Using a dial indicator, measure the backlash between the oil pump gear and No. 1 idle gear sub-assembly.
| Standard backlash |
|---|
| 0.065 to 0.215 mm (0.0026 to 0.0085 in.) |
| Maximum backlash |
|---|
| 0.30 mm (0.0118 in.) |
If the backlash is greater than the maximum, replace the oil pump assembly and No. 1 idle gear sub-assembly.
Using vernier calipers, measure the width of the drive gear.
| Standard width |
|---|
| 27.02 to 27.04 mm (1.0638 to 1.0646 in.) |
Using vernier calipers, measure the depth of the pump chamber on the cylinder block.
| Standard depth |
|---|
| 27.03 to 27.07 mm (1.0642 to 1.0657 in.) |
Calculate the difference between the width of the drive gear and the depth of the pump chamber on the cylinder block. (Gasket thickness: 0.06 to 0.08 mm)
| Standard clearance |
|---|
| 0.05 to 0.13 mm (0.002 to 0.0051 in.) |
| Maximum clearance |
|---|
| 0.17 mm (0.0067 in.) |
Tech Tips
If the difference exceeds the maximum, replace the oil pump assembly or cylinder block.
Inspect the backlash between the drive gear and driven gear.
Using a vise, secure the oil pump assembly.
Using a dial gauge, measure the backlash between the drive gear and driven gear.
| Standard backlash |
|---|
| 0.091 to 0.217 mm (0.0036 to 0.0085 in.) |
| Maximum backlash |
|---|
| 0.25 mm (0.0098 in.) |
Inspect the clearance between the drive gear shaft and drive gear bush.
Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the drive gear shaft.
| Standard shaft diameter |
|---|
| 18.088 to 18.106 mm (0.7121 to 0.7128 in.) |
Using a dial gauge, measure the inside diameter of the drive gear bush.
| Standard bush inside diameter |
|---|
| 18.146 to 18.173 mm (0.7144 to 0.7155 in.) |
| Maximum bush inside diameter |
|---|
| 18.20 mm (0.7165 in.) |
Subtract the diameter measurement of the drive gear shaft from the inside diameter measurement of the drive gear bush.
| Standard clearance |
|---|
| 0.040 to 0.085 mm (0.0016 to 0.0033 in.) |
| Maximum clearance |
|---|
| 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.) |
If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the oil pump assembly or drive gear bush.
Inspect the clearance between the driven gear shaft and driven gear bush.
Using a micrometer, measure the diameter of the driven gear shaft.
| Standard shaft diameter |
|---|
| 17.979 to 17.997 mm (0.7078 to 0.7085 in.) |
Using a dial gauge, measure the inside diameter of the driven gear bush.
| Standard bush inside diameter |
|---|
| 18.037 to 18.054 mm (0.7101 to 0.7108 in.) |
Subtract the diameter measurement of the driven gear shaft from the inside diameter measurement of the driven gear bush.
| Standard clearance |
|---|
| 0.040 mm to 0.075 mm (0.0016 to 0.0030 in.) |
| Maximum clearance |
|---|
| 0.13 mm (0.0051 in.) |
If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the driven gear shaft or the driven gear.
