Adjustment









When any parts listed in the table are replaced, total end play or reverse clutch end play must be adjusted.
1. Adjust total end play.
Total end play "T1": 0.25 - 0.55 mm (0.0098 - 0.0217 inch)





a. With needle bearing installed, place J34291-1 (bridge), J34291-2 (legs) and the J34291-5 (gauging cylinder) onto oil pump. The long ends of legs should be placed firmly on machined surface of oil pump assembly and gauging cylinder should rest on top of the needle bearing. Lock gauging cylinder in place with set screw.





b. Install J34291-23 (gauging plunger) into gauging cylinder.





c. With original bearing race installed inside reverse clutch drum, place shim selecting gauge with its legs on machined surface of transmission case (no gasket) and allow gauging plunger to rest on bearing race. Lock gauging plunger in place with set screw.





d. Remove Tool and use feeler gauge to measure gap between gauging cylinder and gauging plunger. This measurement should give exact total end play.
Total end play T1: 0.25 - 0.55 mm (0.0098 - 0.0217 inch)
- If end play is out of specification, decrease or increase thickness of oil pump cover bearing race as necessary.
Available oil pump cover bearing race Part Number and thickness:
31435-41X01: 0.8 mm (0.031 inch)
31435-41X02: 1.0 mm (0.039 inch)
31435-41X03: 1.2 mm (0.047 inch)

c. With original thrust washer installed on oil pump, place shim setting gauge legs onto machined surface of oil pump assembly and allow gauging plunger to rest on thrust washer. Lock plunger in place with set screw.
d. Use feeler gauge to measure gap between gauging plunger and gauging cylinder. This measurement should give you exact reverse clutch drum and play.
Reverse clutch drum end play "T2": 0.55 - 0.90 mm (0.0217 - 0.0354 inch)
- If end play is out of specification, decrease or increase thickness of oil pump thrust washer as necessary.
