Brush Inspection
Measure the brush length. lf it is not within the service
limit, replace the brush (or brush holder assembly).
Brush Lsngth
Standard {Newl: 14.0 - I'1.5 mm (0.55 - 0.57 inl
Servico Limit: 9.0 mm (0.35 in)
NOTE: To seat new brushes after installing them in their
holders. slip a strip of #500 or #600 sandpaper, with the
grit side up, over the commutator and smoothly rotate
the armature. The contact surface of the brushes will be
sanded to the same contour as the commutator.

Overrunning Clutch Inspection
Slide the overrunning clutch along the shaft. Does it
move freely? lf not, replace it.
Rotate the overrunning clutch both ways. Does it
lock in one direction and rotate smoothly in
reverse? lf it does not lock in either direction or it
locks in both directions, reDlace it.
3.lf the starter drive gear is worn or damaged, replace
the overrunning clutch assembly; the gear is not
available separately.
Check the condition of the torque converter ring gear
or the flywheel ring gear if the starter drive gear
teeth are damaged.

Starting System
Armature Inspection and Test
1. Inspect the armature for wear or damage due to
contact with the field winding. lf there is wear or
damage. replace the armature.
Check the commutator surface. lf the surface is dirty
or burnt, resurface with emery cloth or a lathe with-
in the tollowing specifications, or recondition with
#500 or #600 sandDaoer.
lnspect for damage.

3. Check the commutator diameter. lf commutator
diameter is below the service limit, reolace the
armalure.
Commutator Diameter
Standard (Newl: 27.9 - 28.0 mm (1.09 - 1.10 in)
Service Limilr 27.0 mm (1.06 inl
lf the commutator runout is within the service
limit, check the commutator for carbon dust or
brass chips between the segments.
lf the commutator runout is not within the ser-
vice limit, replace the armature.
Commutator Runout
Standard (Newl: 0 - 0.02 mm (0 - 0.0008 in)
Service Limit: 0.05 mm {0,002 inl
4. Measure the commutator runout.
