- Inspect the following
items for the excessive wear or for damage:
• | The oil pump outer gear (1). |
• | The oil pump inner gear (2). |
• | The pressure relief valve |
- Measure the radial clearance between the oil pump outer gear and
the body of the oil pump using a feeler gauge.
Replace the outer gear of the oil pump and/or of the oil pump if the
clearance exceeds 0.310 mm (0.0122 in).
- Measure the side clearance
between the oil pump gears and a straightedge using a feeler gauge.
Replace the gears if the clearance exceeds 0.15 mm (0.0059 in).
