Counter Gear And Reverse Idler Gear: Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. INSPECT COUNTER GEAR 
    1. Using a dial indicator and 2 V-blocks, measure the shaft runout.

  5. INSPECT NO. 3 TRANSMISSION HUB SLEEVE 
    1. Using vernier calipers, measure the width of the No. 3 transmission hub sleeve groove (A) and the thickness of the claw part on the No. 4 gear shift fork (B), and calculate the clearance.

      Standard clearance (A - B): 

      0.26 to 0.84 mm (0.0102 to 0.0331 in.) 

      If the clearance is outside the specification, replace the No. 3 transmission hub sleeve and No. 4 gear shift fork.

  6. INSPECT NO. 1 TRANSMISSION HUB SLEEVE 
    1. Check the sliding condition between the No. 1 transmission clutch hub and No. 1 transmission hub sleeve.
    2. Check that the spline gear teeth of the No. 1 transmission hub sleeve are not worn.

    3. Using vernier calipers, measure the width of the No. 1 transmission hub sleeve groove (A) and the thickness of the claw part on the No. 1 gear shift fork (B), and calculate the clearance.

      Standard clearance (A - B): 

      0.15 to 0.35 mm (0.0059 to 0.0138 in.) 

      If the clearance is outside the specification, replace the No. 1 transmission hub sleeve and No. 1 gear shift fork.

  7. INSPECT NO. 4 SYNCHRONIZER RING 
    1. Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between the synchronizer ring and reverse gear.

      Standard clearance: 

      0.70 to 1.30 mm (0.0276 to 0.0512 in.) 

      Minimum clearance: 

      0.70 mm (0.0276 in.) 

      If the clearance is less than the minimum, replace the synchronizer ring.
