MEASURING THE BACKLASH
NOTE:
● Do not install the water pump compo-
nents when measuring the backlash.
● Measure the forward gear backlash.
● If the forward gear backlash is larger than
specified, the pinion gear may be too
high.
● If the forward gear backlash is smaller
than specified, the pinion gear may be too
low.
● If either of these conditions exists, then
check the pinion gear shim selection.
1. Place the shift rod in the neutral posi-
tion.
2. Install the dial gauge onto the lower
case.
