8) Adjust water pump belt tension referring to Section 0B for
adjusting procedure.
9) Adjust A/C compressor belt tension (if equipped) referring to
Section 1B for adjusting procedure.
10) Install right side engine under cover.
11) Connect disconnected electric lead wires securely.
12) Refill engine with engine oil.
13) Verify that there is no oil leakage and exhaust gas leakage at
each connection.

2) Remove outer rotor (1) and inner rotor (2).
3) Remove relief valve (1), spring (2) and retainer (3) by remov-
ing circlip (4).
INSPECTION
Check oil seal lip for fault or other damage. Replace as nec-
essary.
Special tool
(A) : 09913-75520
NOTE:
When installing new oil seal (1), press-fit it till its end face
is flush with oil pump case (2) end face.

6A1-32 ENGINE MECHANICAL (M13 ENGINE)
Check outer (1) and inner rotors (2), rotor plate, and oil pump
case for excessive wear or damage.
Check relief valve (1) for excessive wear or damage and
operates smoothly.
MEASUREMENT
Radial Clearance
Check radial clearance between outer rotor (1) and case (2),
using thickness gauge (3).
If clearance exceeds its limit, replace outer rotor or case.
Limit on radial clearance between outer rotor and
case for oil pump
: 0.310 mm (0.0122 in.)
Side Clearance
Using straight edge (1) and thickness gauge (2), measure side
clearance.
Limit on side clearance for oil pump inner rotor
: 0.15 mm (0.0059 in.)

ENGINE MECHANICAL (M13 ENGINE) 6A1-33
ASSEMBLY
1) Wash, clean and then dry all disassembled parts.
2) Apply thin coat of engine oil to inner and outer rotors, oil seal
lip portion, and inside surfaces of oil pump case and plate.
3) Install outer (1) and inner rotors (2) to oil pump case.
4) Install relief valve component (1) to rotor plate (2).
5) Install rotor plate and tighten all bolts to specified torque.
