(3) Clean oil pump parts in cleaning solvent.  Dry with compressed air. (4) Inspect oil pump components for excessive wear.  Replace parts or oil pump assembly as necessary. (5) Inspect outlet tube (8) and pick-up tube assembly (4) for cracks or defects.  Replace parts as necessary. (6) Install idler gear (12) and drive gear (13). (7) Using straight edge and feeler gage, check axial clearance between idler gear (12) and housing (11, Figure 5-86), refer to Figure 5-87.  Replace oil pump if clearance is not 0.0018 - 0.0065 in. (0.045 - 0.165 mm). FIGURE 5-87.  OIL PUMP AXIAL CLEARANCE (8) Using straight edge and feeler gage, check axial clearance between drive gear (13) and housing (11), refer to Figure 5-87.  Replace oil pump if clearance is not 0.0018 - 0.0065 in. (0.045 - 0.165 mm). (9) Using feeler gage, check radial clearance between idler gear (12) and housing (11), refer to Figure 5-86.  Replace oil pump if clearance is not 0.005 - 0.008 in. (0.131 - 0.211 mm). (10) Using feeler gage, check radial clearance between drive gear (13) and housing (11), refer to Figure 5-88.  Replace oil pump if clearance is not 0.005 - 0.008 in. (0.131 - 0.211 mm). (11) Remove idler gear (12, Figure 5-86).
