    IMPORTANT: When removing the drive link assembly (36) note which direction the chain faces. You must later install the chain in the same direction in order to prevent excessive noise.
  1. Remove, as an entire unit, the drive sprocket (37), the turbine shaft (39), the driven sprocket (91) and the drive link assembly (36).
  2. If the drive sprocket to drive sprocket support thrust washer (38) has not remained with the drive sprocket assembly (37 and 39), remove the drive sprocket to drive sprocket support thrust washer (38). The driven sprocket to driven sprocket support thrust washer (92) should remain with the driven sprocket support assembly (95).
