Disassembly and Reassembly

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY

^ When installing oil pump, apply engine oil to gears.

OIL PUMP INSPECTION














Using a feeler gauge, straightedge and micrometers, check the following clearances:
^ If the tip clearance (2) exceeds the limit, replace gear set.
^ If body to gear clearances (1, 3, 4, 5) exceed the limit, replace oil pump body assembly.

REGULATOR VALVE INSPECTION





1. Visually inspect components for wear and damage.
2. Check oil pressure regulator valve sliding surface and valve spring.
3. Coat regulator valve with engine oil. Check that it fails smoothly into the valve hole by its own weight.
If damaged, replace regulator valve set or oil pump body.





4. Check regulator valve to oil pump body clearance.
Clearance:
6: 0.040 - 0.097 mm (0.0016 - 0.0038 inch)
If it exceeds the limit, replace oil pump body.
