If the tip clearance (2) exceeds the limit, replace gear set.

If body to gear clearances (1, 3, 4, 5) exceed the limit,
replace front cover assembly.
REGULATOR VALVE INSPECTIONNCLC0008
1. Visually inspect components for wear and damage.
2. Check oil pressure regulator valve sliding surface and valve
spring.
3. Coat regulator valve with engine oil.
Check that it falls smoothly into the valve hole by its own
weight.
If damaged, replace regulator valve set or front cover assem-
bly.
4. Check regulator valve to front cover clearance.
Clearance:
6 : 0.052 - 0.088 mm (0.0020 - 0.0035 in)
If it exceeds the limit, replace front cover assembly.
Oil FilterNCLC0010The oil filter is a small, full-flow cartridge type and is provided with
a relief valve.

The new and previous oil filter designs differ from each
other and are not interchangeable.

Use Tool KV10115801 for removing oil filter.

REGULATOR VALVE INSPECTION
1. Visually inspect components for wear and damage.
2. Check oil pressure regulator valve sliding surface and valve
spring.
3. Coat regulator valve with engine oil. Check that regulator valve
falls smoothly into the valve hole by its own weight.
If damaged, replace regulator valve set or oil pump cover.
4. Check regulator valve to oil pump cover clearance.
Clearance:
6: 0.040 - 0.097 mm (0.0016 - 0.0038 in)
If it exceeds the limit, replace oil pump cover.
Oil Filter
The oil filter is a small, full-flow cartridge type and is provided with
a relief valve.

The new and existing oil filter designs differ from each
other and are not interchangeable.

Use Tool KV10115801 or KV10115800 for removing oil fil-
ter.

Oil Cooler
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Drain engine oil and coolant.
2. Remove oil cooler.
3. Installation is in reverse order of removal

Be careful not to burn yourself as engine oil is hot

After installation, run engine for a few minutes and check
for oil leaks.

Do not spill coolant on drive belts.
INSPECTION
1. Check oil cooler for cracks.
2. Check oil cooler for clogging by blowing through coolant inlet.
If necessary, replace oil cooler assembly.

Oil Pressure Check
WARNING:

Be careful not to burn yourself, as the engine and oil may
be hot.

Oil pressure check should be done in“Neutral”gear posi-
tion.
1. Check oil level.
2. Remove oil pressure switch.
3. Install pressure gauge.
4. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
5. Check oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
Engine rpm Approximate discharge pressure
kPa (bar, kg/cm2, psi)
Idle speedMore than 59 (0.59, 0.6, 9)
2,000294 (2.9, 3, 43)
If difference is extreme, check oil passage and oil pump for oil
leaks.
6. Install oil pressure switch with sealant.
Oil Pump
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Drain engine coolant and engine oil.
2. Remove upper radiator hose, drive belts, crank pulley, timing
belt covers and timing belt. (Refer to EM section).
3. Remove exhaust front tube, timing belt pulley and rear engine
gusset (bar type), then remove oil pan. (Refer to EM section).
4. Remove crankshaft position sensor (TDC).
5. Remove oil pump assembly with oil strainer.
6. Reinstall any part removed. Refill engine oil and engine cool-
ant.

Apply liquid gasket to oil pump.

Apply liquid gasket to oil pan.

Apply liquid gasket to both ends of oil pan oil seals.

Install oil pan, fitting oil seals in the correct position.

OIL PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE INSPECTION
Inspect oil pressure relief valve (indicated by arrow) for movement,
cracks and breaks by pushing the ball. If replacement is necessary,
remove valve by prying it out with a suitable tool. Install a new valve
by tapping it into place.
