1. INSPECT NO. 3 SYNCHRONIZER RING

(a) Apply manual transmission gear oil to the taper corn of the 3rd gear, and hold the No. 3 synchronizer ring in position with your hand to measure the clearance between the No. 3 synchronizer ring and 3rd gear by using a feeler gauge.





Standard clearance:

0.8 to 1.6 mm (0.0315 to 0.0630 in.)

Minimum clearance:

0.8 mm (0.0315 in.)

NOTICE:
Check the entire circumference of the gear.

HINT
If the clearance is less than the minimum, replace the No. 3 synchronizer ring and input shaft with a new one.

(b) Apply manual transmission gear oil to the taper cone of the 3rd gear, and then hold the No. 3 synchronizer ring in position with your hand to check that it does not slide in the circumferential direction.





HINT
If the No. 3 synchronizer ring slides, replace the No. 3 synchronizer ring and input shaft with a new one.
