If the clearance exceeds the maximum, replace the No. 3 gear shift head with a new one.

4. INSPECT NO. 1 SHIFT FORK SHAFT

(a) Using a vernier caliper, measure the claw width of the No. 1 shift fork shaft.





Standard width:

14.8 to 15.0 mm (0.583 to 0.591 in.)

HINT
If the width is less than the minimum, replace the No. 1 shift fork shaft with a new one.

5. INSPECT NO. 2 SHIFT INTER LOCK PIN

(a) Using a vernier caliper, measure the claw width of the No. 2 shift inter lock pin.





Standard width:

14.8 to 15.0 mm (0.583 to 0.591 in.)

14.8 mm (0.583 in.)

HINT
If the width is less than the minimum, replace the No. 2 shift inter lock pin.

6. INSPECT NO. 4 GEAR SHIFT FORK

(a) Using a vernier caliper, measure the clearance of the No. 4 gear shift fork groove.





Standard clearance:

15.2 to 15.4 mm (0.598 to 0.606 in.)

Maximum clearance:

15.4 mm (0.606 in.)

HINT
If the clearance exceeds the maximum, replace the No. 4 gear shift fork with a new one.

7. INSPECT REVERSE AND 5TH SHIFT HEAD

(a) Using a vernier caliper, measure the clearance of the reverse and 5th shift head groove.





Standard clearance:

15.2 to 15.4 mm (0.598 to 0.606 in.)

Maximum clearance:

15.4 mm (0.606 in.)

HINT
If the clearance exceeds the maximum, replace the reverse and 5th shift head with a new one.

8. INSPECT NO. 4 SYNCHRONIZER RING

(a) Apply manual transmission gear oil to the taper cone of the counter 6th gear, and then hold the No. 4 synchronizer ring in position with your hand to measure the clearance between the No. 4 synchronizer ring and counter 6th gear by using a feeler gauge.





Standard clearance:

0.88 to 1.52 mm (0.0346 to 0.0598 in.)

Minimum clearance:

0.88 mm (0.0346 in.)

NOTICE:
Check the entire circumference of the gear.

HINT
If the clearance is less than the minimum, replace the No. 4 synchronizer ring and counter 6th gear with a new one.

(b) Apply manual transmission gear oil to the taper cone of the counter 6th gear, and then hold the No. 4 synchronizer ring in position with your hand to check that it does not slide in the circumferential direction.





HINT
If the No. 4 synchronizer ring slides, replace the No. 4 synchronizer ring and counter 6th gear with a new one.

9. INSPECT COUNTER 6TH GEAR

(a) Using a cylinder gauge, measure the inside diameter of the counter 6th gear.





Standard inside diameter:

34.015 to 34.040 mm (1.33917 to 1.34016 in.)

Maximum inside diameter:

34.040 mm (1.34016 in.)

HINT
If the inside diameter exceeds the maximum, replace the counter 6th gear with a new one.

10. INSPECT NO. 4 TRANSMISSION HUB SLEEVE

(a) Check that the spline gear edges of the No. 4 transmission hub sleeve are not worn down.





HINT
If it shows any sign of wear, replace the No. 4 transmission hub sleeve with a new one.

(b) Install the No. 4 transmission hub sleeve to the No. 4 transmission clutch hub, and then check that it slides smoothly.

HINT
If it does not slide smoothly, replace the No. 4 transmission hub sleeve and No. 4 transmission clutch hub with a new one.

11. INSPECT NO. 4 TRANSMISSION HUB SLEEVE CLEARANCE

(a) Using a vernier caliper, measure the claw width of the No. 4 gear shift fork.





Standard width:

7.9 to 8.0 mm (0.311 to 0.315 in.)

Minimum width:

7.9 mm (0.311 in.)

HINT
If the width is less than the minimum, replace the gear No. 4 shift fork with a new one.

(b) Using a vernier caliper, measure the groove of the No. 4 transmission hub sleeve and then calculate the clearance with the No. 4 gear shift fork.

Standard clearance:

0.15 to 0.35 mm (0.00590 to 0.0138 in.)

Maximum clearance:

0.35 mm (0.0138 in.)

HINT
If the clearance exceeds the maximum, replace both the No. 4 gear shift fork and No. 4 transmission hub sleeve with a new ones.

12. INSPECT REVERSE IDLER GEAR SUB-ASSEMBLY

(a) Using a cylinder gauge, measure the inner diameter of the reverse idler gear sub-assembly.

22.040 to 22.061mm (0.86771 to 0.86854 in.)

Maximum inside diameter:

22.061mm (0.86854 in.)

HINT
If the inside diameter exceeds the maximum, replace the reverse idler gear sub-assembly with a new one.

13. INSPECT REVERSE IDLER GEAR SHAFT

(a) Using a micrometer, measure the outer diameter of the reverse idler gear shaft.





Standard outer diameter:

21.979 to 22.000 mm (0.86531 to 0.86614 in.)

Minimum outer diameter:

21.979 mm (0.86531 in.)

HINT
If the outer diameter is less than the minimum, replace the reverse idler gear shaft with a new one.
