NOIROA~U6. REMOVAL OF OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
(1) Remove the oil pressure switch terminals.
(2) Using the special tool, remove the oil pressure switch.
CautionSince sealant is coated on the thread area, be
careful not to break it.
9. REMOVAL OF OIL PAN
(1) Remove the all oil pan bolts.
(2) Drive in the special tool between the cylinder block and
oil pan.
NOTE
Never use a screwdriver or chisel, instead of the special
tool, as a deformed oil pan flange will result, resulting inoil leakage.
18. REMOVAL OF PLUG CAP
Using the special tool, remove the plug cap.
20. REMOVAL OF DRIVEN GEAR BOLT
(1) Remove the plug on the side of cylinder block.
(2) Insert a Phillips screwdriver [shank diameter 8 mm
(.32in.)] into the plug hold to block the silent shaft.
(3) Remove the driven gear bolt that secures the oil pump
driven gear to the silent shaft.

3EN04131. REMOVAL OF SILENT SHAFT FRONT BEARINGS
Using the special tool, remove the right silent shaft front
bearing from the cylinder block.
NOTE
Be sure to remove the front bearing first.
If it has not been removed, the Rear Bearing Puller cannot
be used.
32. REMOVAL OF RIGHT SILENT SHAFT REAR BEARING
Using the special tool, remove the right silent shaft rear
bearing from the cylinder block.
33. REMOVAL OF LEFT SILENT SHAFT REAR
BEARINGUsing the special tool, remove the left silent shaft rear

INSPECTION
FRONT CASE
NOSRCJCl(1) Check oil holes for clogging and clean if necessary.
(2) Check silent shaft front bearing section for wear, damage
and seizure. If there is anything wrong with the section,
replace the front case.
(3) Check the front case for cracks and other damage. Repladecracked or damaged front case.
OIL SEAL
NOSRCMAl
(1) Check the oil seal lip for wear and damage. Replace oil sealif necessary.
(2) Check the oil seal lip for deterioration. Replace oil seal
!if
necessary.

Fine
7LUOOO76LUO12OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
-1
(1) Connect a tester (ohm range) between the terminal and thebody and check for conductivity. If there is no conductivity,
replace the switch.
(2) Next insert a very fine wedge through the oil hole, pushing
it slightly. There should be no conductivity (resistance
should be infinite). If there is conductivity even when
wedge is pushed, replace the switch.
(3) Or, if there is no conductivity when a 50
kPa (71 psi)
pressure is placed through the oil hole, the switch is
operating properly. Check at this time to see that there is
no air pressure leakage. If there is air pressure leakage, thediaphragm is broken, and the switch should be replaced.
OIL COOLER BYPASS VALVE (Turbo)
NaacNA
(1) Make sure that the valve moves smoothly.
(2) Ensure that the dimension
L measures the standard value
under normal temperature and humidity.
Dimension
L: 34.5 mm (1.358 in.)
(3) The dimension must be the standard value when measuredafter the valve has been dipped in
100°C (212°F) oil.
Dimension
L: 40 mm (1.57 in.) or more
OIL PUMP
NOBRCGG(1) Assemble the oil pump gear to the front case and rotate it
to ensure smooth rotation with no looseness.
(2) Ensure that there is no ridge wear on the contact surface
between the front case and the gear surface of the oil
pump cover.
(3) With the drive and driven gears installed into the front case.Standard value:
Drive gear
0.16-0.21 mm (.0063-.0083 in.)

SILENT SHAFT
NOBRUE(1) Check oil holes for clogging.
(2) Check journal for seizure, damage, and contact with
bearing. If there is anything wrong with the journal, replacesilent shaft, bearing or front case assembly.
(3) Check the silent shaft oil clearance. If the clearance is
excessively due to wear, replace the silent shaft bearing,
silent shaft or front case assembly.
