3. Install oil pump remover and end play checking fixture tool No. J-24773-A, or equivalent, as shown in, then attach a suitable dial indicator.

4. Zero dial indicator, then pull up on checking fixture. Endplay should be 0.005-0.036 inch. If dial indicator shows no endplay, then selective washer and thrust bearing have been improperly assembled.
