Side ClearancesNBAT0114S02IMeasure side clearances between end of oil pump housing
and cam ring, rotor, vanes and control piston. Measure in at
least four places along their circumferences. Maximum mea-
sured values should be within specified positions.
IBefore measurement, check that friction rings, O-ring,
control piston side seals and cam ring spring are
removed.
Standard clearance (Cam ring, rotor, vanes and control
piston):
Refer to SDS, AT-360.
IIf not within standard clearance, replace oil pump assembly
except oil pump cover assembly.
Seal Ring ClearanceNBAT0114S03IMeasure clearance between seal ring and ring groove.
Standard clearance:
0.10 - 0.25 mm (0.0039 - 0.0098 in)
Wear limit:
0.25 mm (0.0098 in)
IIf not within wear limit, replace oil pump cover assembly.

age to the sensor wires and the sensor becoming inoperative.
1. Remove brake caliper assembly.
Brake hose need not be disconnected from brake caliper. In
this case, suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to
stretch brake hose.
Be careful not to depress brake pedal, or piston will pop out.
Make sure brake hose is not twisted.
