1. Check the inner and outer circumference, tooth face, and side- face of the inner and outer gears for damage or abnormal wear.
2. Measure the side clearance between the main oil pump housing edge and the inner and outer gears.
3. Make sure the side clearance is within specification. If the mea- surement is out of specificat ion, replace the inner and outer
gears with new ones as a set. Refer to DLN-142, "Disassembly
and Assembly".
Sub-oil Pump
1. Check the inner and outer circumference, tooth face, and side-
face of the inner and outer gears for damage or abnormal wear.
2. Measure the side clearance between the sub oil pump housing edge and the inner and outer gears.
3. Make sure the side clearance is within specification. If the mea- surement is out of specificat ion, replace the inner and outer
gears with new ones as a set. Refer to DLN-179, "Inspection
and Adjustment".
Control Valve
 Check resistance between the terminals of the clutch pressure
solenoid valve, 2-4WD shift solenoid valve, clutch pressure switch,
line pressure switch and the transfer fluid temperature sensor.
Refer to TM-26, "Control Valve"
(clutch pressure solenoid valve),
TM-26, "Control Valve"
(2-4WD solenoid valve), TM-26, "Control
Va l v e " (clutch pressure switch), TM-26, "Control Valve" (line pres-
sure switch) and TM-26, "Control Valve"
(transfer fluid temperature
sensor).
 Check the sliding faces of the control valves and plugs for abnor- mality. If any is found, replace t he control valve assembly with a
new one. Refer to DLN-142, "Disassembly and Assembly"
.
CAUTION:
Replace control valve body together with clutch return spring
as a set. Specification : Refer to
