Oil Clearance between Idle Gear Shaft 1, 2 and Idle Gear 1, 2
Bushing
1. Measure the idle gear shaft O.D. with an outside micrometer.
2. Measure the idle gear bushings I.D. with an inside micrometer,
and calculate the oil clearance.
3. If the oil clearance exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
bushing.

Replacing Idle Gear Bushing
(When removing)
1. Using an idle gear bushing replacing tool, press out the used
bushing.
(When installing)
1. Clean a new idle gear bushing and idle gear bore, and apply
engine oil to them.
2. Using an idle gear bushing replacing tool, press in a new bushing
(service parts) to the specified dimension. (See figure.)

Balancer Shaft Side Clearance
1. Set a dial indicator with tip on the balancer shaft.
2. Measure the side clearance by moving the balancer shaft to the
front and rear.
3. If the measurement exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
balancer shaft.

Balance Shaft Alignment
1. Support the balancer shaft with V blocks on the surface plate and
set a dial indicator with its tip on the intermediate journal at high
angle.
2. Rotate the balancer shaft on the V block and get the
misalignment (half of the measurement).
3. If the misalignment exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
balancer shaft.
