gauge.
E. Firmly pull crankshaft as far as it will go while
rotating it back and forth.
F. While still pulling on crankshaft, note the reading of
the dial indicator gauge.
G. Verify that end play is
0.004-0.017 inches
(0.09-0.44
mm) if Silicone Sealant bead was applied to
crankcase cover, or
0.015-0.039 inches
(0.39-1.00
mm) if steel core gasket was installed.
H. Repeat the procedure to verify the reading.
I.

3. Capture stator wires in clamp (
B
, Figure 157) and start
screw (
C
) to fasten clamp to crankcase. Tighten fastener
to
90 lb-in
(10.2 Nm). Sleeve does not need to be
captured in clamp.
4. Install 4 fasteners with flat washers (
D
) to fasten stator to
