the bearing race in the recess of the high clutch.
Attach the thrust needle bearing to the oil pump
cover with vaseline.(2) After correctly installing the gasket to the
case mating surface, carefully install the oil
pump housing assembly. Be careful to avoid hit-
ting the drive pinion against the inside of the
case.
CAUTION:
IBe careful not to damage the seal ring.
IBe sure to use a new gasket.
(3) Install both parts with dowel pins aligned.
Make sure no clearance exists at the mating
surface.
NOTE:
Any clearance suggests a damaged seal ring.
