5. Check the mica depth. lf necessary, undercut the
mica with a hacksaw blade to achieve proper depth.
lf the service limit cannot be maintained, reDlace
the armature.

Commutator Mica Depth
Standard (Nsw): 0.5 - 0.8 mm 10.02 - 0.03 inl
Servico Limit: 0.2 mm (0.008 in)
Check for continuity between the segments of the
commutator. lf an open circuit exists between any
segments. replace the armature.

7. Place the armature on an armature tester. Hold a
hacksaw blade on the armature core.
lf the blade is attracted to the core or vibrates while
the core is turned. the armature is shorted. Replace
the armature.
8. With an ohmmeter, check that no continuity exists
between the commutator and armature coil core,
and between the commutator and armature shaft. lf
there is continuity. replace the armature,

Timing Belt
Removal
Replace the timing belt at 105,000 miles (168,000 km)
according to the maintenance schedule {normal condi-
tions/severe conditions). lf the vehicle is regularly driven
in either of the following conditions, replace the timing
belt at 60,000 miles (U.S.A.l 100.000 km (Canada).
- ln very high temperatures (over 110'F, 43"C).- In very low temperatures (under -20"F. -29"C).
