Standard Clearance

0.015 to 0.048 mm (0.000591 to 0.00189 in.)

Maximum Clearance

0.048 mm (0.00189 in.)

If the clearance exceeds the maximum, replace the reverse idler gear, needle roller bearing or reverse idler gear shaft.

INSPECT NO. 1 GEAR SHIFT FORK

Using a micrometer, measure the outer diameter of the No. 1 gear shift fork.

Standard Outer Diameter

13.982 to 14.00 mm (0.5505 to 0.5512 in.)

Minimum Outer Diameter

13.982 mm (0.5505 in.)

If the outer diameter is less than the minimum, replace the No. 1 gear shift fork.

Using a vernier caliper, measure the No. 1 gear shift fork.
