Cleaning and inspection
Clean the lubricating oil pump, pressure regulator
valve (Figure 9-14, (7)), and rotor inserting portion.
Check the parts for wear or flaw. Replace the parts
with new ones as needed.
Check Outer Rotor Outside Clearance

rotor. To inspect this, insert a feeler gauge between
the outer rotor (Figure 9-17, (1)) and the lubricating
