Refer to the drawing for transmission disassembly/reassembly.
Clean all the parts thoroughly in solvent and dry with compressed air.

OIL: Lubricate all the parts with oil before reassembly.

NOTE:
- This transmission uses no gaskets between the major housings; use liquid gasket (P/N 08718-0001 or 08718-0003)
- Always clean the magnet (66) whenever the transmission housing is disassembled.

6. Measure the clearance between the spacer collar and 5th gear.





7. If the clearance is more than the service limit, measure distance (B) on the spacer collar.





8. If distance (B) is less than the service limit, replace the spacer collar with a new one. If distance (B) is within the service limit, measure thickness of 5th gear.
- If the thickness of 5th gear is less than the service limit, replace 5th gear with a new one.
- If the thickness of 5th gear is within the service limit, replace the 5th synchro hub with a new one.

Disassembly




1. Remove the ball bearing using a bearing puller as shown.

CAUTION: Remove the synchro hubs using a press and steel blocks as shown. Use of a jaw-type puller can cause damage to the gear teeth.





2. Support 4th gear on steel blocks, and press the mainshaft out of the 5th synchro hub as shown.





3. Support the 3rd gear on steel blocks, and press the mainshaft out of the 3rd/4th synchro hub as shown.

Inspection




1. Inspect the gear surface and bearing surface for wear and damage, then measure the mainshaft at points A, B, C, and D.
If any part of the mainshaft is less than the service limit, replace it with a new one.

2. Inspect for runout.

Standard: 0.02 mm (0.001 inch) maximum
Service Limit: 0.05 mm (0.002 inch)






NOTE: Support the mainshaft at both ends as shown.
