  2. Remove the screws from the pump housing, then separate the housing and cover.

Inspection
  1. Check the inner-to-outer rotor radial clearance between the inner rotor (A) and outer rotor (B). If the inner-to-outer rotor radial clearance exceeds the service limit, replace the oil pump assembly.

    Inner Rotor-to-Outer Rotor Radial Clearance

    Standard (New): 0.02 - 0.07 mm (0.001 - 0.003 in.)
    Service Limit 0.15 mm (0.006 in.)

  1. Check the housing-to-rotor axial clearance between the rotor (A) and pump housing (B). If the housing-to-rotor axial clearance exceeds the service limit, replace the oil pump assembly.

    Housing-to-Rotor Axial Clearance

    Standard (New): 0.02 - 0.07 mm (0.001 - 0.003 in.)
    Service Limit 0.15 mm (0.006 in.)
