DISASSEMBLY
When disassembling the transaxle it is necessary
to inspect the oil pump for wear and damage.
(1) Remove the reaction shaft support bolts.
(2) Remove reaction shaft support from pump
housing (Fig. 260).
(3) Remove the pump gears (Fig. 261) and check
for wear and damage on pump housing and gears.
(4) Re-install the gears and check clearances.
(5) Measure the clearance between the outer gear
and the pump pocket (Fig. 262). Clearance should be
0.089–0.202 mm (0.0035-0.0079 in.)..
(6) Measure clearance between outer gear and
crescent. Clearance should be 0.060-0.298 mm
(0.0023-0.0117 in.).
(7) Measure clearance between inner gear and
crescent. Clearance should be 0.093-0.385 mm
(0.0036-0.0151 in.).
(8) Position an appropriate piece of Plastigage
across both pump gears.
(9) Align the Plastigage to a flat area on the reac-
tion shaft support housing.
(10) Install the reaction shaft to the pump hous-
ing. Tighten the bolts to 27 N·m (20 ft. lbs.).
(11) Remove bolts and carefully separate the hous-
ings. Measure the Plastigage following the instruc-
tions supplied.
(12) Clearance between outer gear side and the
reaction shaft support should be 0.020-0.046 mm
(0.0008-0.0018 in.). Clearance between inner gear
side and the reaction shaft support should be 0.020-
0.046 mm (0.0008-0.0018 in.).
