(b) Move the pinion gear toward the armature to remove
slack and measure the clearance between the pinion
gear end and stop collar.
Standard clearance: 1 - 5 mm (0.04 - 0.20 in.)
5. DO NO-LOAD PERFORMANCE TEST
(a) Connect the field coil lead to terminal C. Make sure the
lead is not grounded.
(b) Connect the battery and ammeter to the starter as shown.
(c) Check that the starter rotates smoothly and steadily with
the clutch pinion gear moving out. Check that the amme-
ter reads the specified current.
Specified current: At 11.5 V: 90 A or less

INSPECTION
1. INSPECT ROTOR
(a) Check the rotor for open circuit.
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity be-
tween the slip rings.
Type A:2.2 - 2.4 W at 20°C (68°F)
Type B:2.8 - 3.0 W at 20°C (68°F)
If there is no continuity, replace the rotor.
(b) Check the rotor for ground.
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity be-
tween the slip ring and rotor.
If there is continuity, replace the rotor.
(c) Check that the slip rings are not rough or scored.
If rough or scored, replace the rotor.
(d) Using vernier calipers, measure the slip ring diameter.
Standard diameter: 14.2 - 14.4 mm (0.559 - 0.567 in.)
Minimum diameter: 12.8 mm (0.504 in.)
If the diameter is less than minimum, replace the rotor.
2. INSPECT STATOR (DRIVE END FRAME)
(a) Check the stator for open circuit.
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity be-
tween the coil leads.
If there is no continuity, replace the drive end frame assembly.
(b) Check the stator for ground.
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity be-
tween the coil lead and drive end frame.
If there is continuity, replace the drive end frame assembly.

INSPECTION
1. C151:
INSPECT 5TH GEAR SYNCHRONIZER RING
(a) Check for wear or damage.
(b) Check the braking effect of the synchronizer ring. Turn the
synchronizer ring in one direction while pushing it to the
gear cone. Check that the ring locks.
If the braking effect is insufficient, apply a small amount of fine
lapping compound between the synchronizer ring and gear
cone.
(c) Lightly rub the synchronizer ring and gear cone together.
NOTICE:
Ensure the fine lapping compound is completely washed
off after rubbing.
(d) Check again the braking effect of the synchronizer ring.
(e) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between
the synchronizer ring back and gear spline end.
Minimum clearance: 0.6 mm (0.024 in.)
If the clearance is less than the minimum, replace the synchro-
nizer ring, and apply a small amount of the fine lapping com-
pound on gear cone.
NOTICE:
Ensure the fine lapping compound is completely washed
off after rubbing.
2. C151:
INSPECT SHIFT FORK AND HUB SLEEVE CLEAR-
ANCE
Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between the hub
sleeve and shift fork.
Maximum clearance: 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
If the clearance exceeds the maximum, replace the shift fork or
hub sleeve.
3. REMOVE TRANSAXLE CASE RECEIVER
Remove the bolt and transaxle case receiver.
4. IF NECESSARY, REPLACE INPUT SHAFT FRONT
BEARING AND OIL SEAL
(a) Using SST, remove the bearing.

1996 TERCEL (RM440U)
REASSEMBLY
1. ASSEMBLE DIFFERENTIAL CASE
(a) Install the correct thrust washers and side gears.
Refer to the table below, select thrust washers which will
ensure that the backlash is within the specification. Try to
select washers of the same size for both sides.
Standard backlash:
0.05 - 0.20 mm (0.0020 - 0.0079 in.)
Thickness mm (in.)Thickness mm (in.)
1.50 (0.0591)1.65 (0.0650)
1.55 (0.0610)1.70 (0.0669)
1.60 (0.0630)1.75 (0.0689)
(b) Install the thrust washers and side gears in the differential
case.
(c) Install the pinion shaft.
(d) Using a dial indicator, check the side gear backlash.
Measure the side gear backlash while holding one pinion
gear toward the case.
Standard backlash:
0.05 - 0.20 mm (0.0020 - 0.0079 in.)
If the backlash is not within the specification, install a thrust
washer of different thickness.
(e) Using a pin punch and hammer, install the straight pin
through the case and hole in the pinion shaft.
(f) Stake the differential case.
2. INSTALL RING GEAR ON DIFFERENTIAL CASE
(a) Clean the contact surface of the differential case.
(b) Heat the ring gear in boiling water.
(c) Carefully remove the ring gear from the water.
(d) After the moisture on the ring gear has completely evapo-
rated, quickly install the ring gear to the differential case.
HINT:
Align the matchmarks on the differential case and contact the
ring gear.
(e) Install the 6 set bolts. Tighten each set bolt uniformly, at
a time in succession. Torque the bolts.
Torque: 124 N´m (1,260 kgf´cm, 91 ft´lbf)

5. HYDRAULIC TEST
(a) Measure the line pressure.
(1) Warm up the transaxle fluid.
(2) Remove the transaxle case test plug and mount SST (See page AX-25).
SST 09992-00094 (09992-00150, 09992-00270)
NOTICE:
Do the test at normal operating fluid temperature 50 - 80°C (122 - 176 °F).
(3) Fully apply the parking brake and check the 4 wheels.
(4) Start the engine and check the idle speed.
(5) Shift into the D position,step down strongly on the brake pedal with your left foot and while manip-
ulating the accelerator pedal with the right foot, measure the line pressure at the engine speeds
specified in the toble.
(6) In the same manner, do the test in the R position.
Specified line pressure:
D positionIdling
Stall363 - 422 kPa (3.7 - 4.3 kgf/cm2, 53 - 61 psi)
902 - 1,049 kPa (9.2 - 10.7 kgf/cm2, 131 - 152 psi)
R position Idling
Stall530 - 706 kPa (5.4 - 7.2 kgf/cm2, 77 - 102 psi)
1,412 - 1,647 kPa (14.4 - 16.8 kgf/cm2, 205 - 239 psi)
(7) If the measured pressures are not up to specified values, recheck the throttle cable adjustment
and retest it (see step 2).
