With C52 Transaxle/2WD

1. INSPECT SYNCHRONIZER RING FOR THIRD GEAR
a. Check for wear or damage.
b. Check the braking effect of the synchronizer ring. Turn the synchronizer ring in one direction while pushing it to the gear cone and check that the ring is locked.
If the braking effect is insufficient, lightly rub the synchronizer ring and gear cone by applying a small amount of fine lapping compound.

NOTE: Wash off completely the fine lapping compound after rubbing.

Check again the braking effect of the synchronizer ring.




c. Measure the clearance between the synchronizer A ring back and gear spline end.

Maximum clearance: 0.6 mm (0.024 in.)

If the clearance is less than the limit, replace the synchronizer ring and gear cone by applying a small amount of fine compound.

NOTE: Wash off completely the fine lapping compound after rubbing.




2. INSPECT SYNCHRONIZER RING FOR FOURTH GEAR
a. Check for wear or damage.
b. Check the braking effect of the synchronizer ring. Turn the synchronizer ring in one direction while pushing it to the gear cone and check that the ring is locked.
If the braking effect is insufficient, lightly rub the synchronizer ring and gear cone by applying a small amount of fine lapping compound.

NOTE: Wash off completely the fine lapping compound after rubbing.

Check again the braking effect of the synchronizer ring.




c. Measure the clearance between the synchronizer ring back and gear spline end.

Minimum clearance: 0.6 mm (0.024 in.)

If the clearance is less than the limit, replace the synchronizer ring and gear cone by applying a small amount of fine lapping compound.

NOTE: Wash off completely the fine lapping compound after rubbing.




3. INSPECT CLEARANCE OF SHIFT FORK AND HUB SLEEVE
Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between the hub sleeve and shift fork.

Maximum clearance: 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)

If the clearance exceeds the maximum, replace the shift fork or hub sleeve.




4. INSPECT INPUT SHAFT
a. Check the input shaft for wear or damage.
b. Using a micrometer, measure the outer diameter of the input shaft journal surface.

Maximum clearance:
Part A: 24.870 mm (0.9791 in.)
Part B: 28.970 mm (1.1405 in.)
Part C: 30.970 mm (1.2193 in.)
Part D: 24.970 mm (0.9831 in.)

If the outer diameter exceeds the minimum, replace the input shaft.




c. Using a dial indicator, check the shaft runout.

Maximum clearance: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)

If the runout exceeds the maximum, replace the input shaft.
