6A1-30 ENGINE MECHANICAL (G13B, 1-CAM 16-VALVES ENGINE)
NOTE:
When installing oil seal (1), press-fit it till its end face is flush
with oil pump case (2) end face.

Check outer and inner rotors, rotor plate, and oil pump case for
excessive wear or damage.
MEASUREMENT

Radial clearance
Check radial clearance between outer rotor (1) and case, using
thickness gauge.
If clearance exceeds its limit, replace outer rotor or case.
Limit on radial clearance between outer rotor and case:
0.200 mm (0.079 in.)

Side clearance
Using straight edge and thickness gauge, measure side clear-
ance.
Limit on side clearance: 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
ASSEMBLY
1) Wash, clean and then dry all disassembled parts.
2) Apply thin coat of engine oil to inner (2) and outer rotors (1), oil
seal lip portion, and inside surfaces of oil pump case and plate.
3) Install outer and inner rotors to pump case.

Rocker Arm-to-Rocker Arm Shaft Clearance
Using a micrometer and a bore gauge, measure rocker shaft dia.
and rocker arm l.D.
Difference between two readings is arm-to-shaft clearance on
which a limit is specified.
If limit is exceeded, replace shaft or arm, or both.

Camshaft Journal Wear
Check camshaft journals and camshaft housings for pitting,
scratches, wear or damage.
If any malcondition is found, replace camshaft or cylinder head with
housing. Never replace cylinder head without replacing housing.

Check clearance by using gaging plastic.
The procedure is as follows.
1) Clean housing and camshaft journals.
2) Install camshaft to cylinder head.
3) Place a piece of gaging plastic the full width of journal of cam-
shaft (parallel to camshaft).
4) Install camshaft housing referring to “INSTALLATION” of the fol-
lowing page.
5) Tighten camshaft housing bolts in such order as indicated in fig-
ure a little at a time till they are tightened to specified torque.

NOTE:
Do not rotate camshaft while gaging plastic is installed.
6) Remove housing and using scale (2) on gaging plastic (1) enve-
lope, measure gaging plastic width at its widest point.

INSPECTION
Valve Guides
Using a micrometer and bore gauge, take diameter readings on
valve stems and guides to check stem-to-guide clearance.
Be sure to take reading at more than one place along the length of
each stem and guide.
If clearance exceeds limit, replace valve and valve guide.

with a dial gauge instead.

Valves

Remove all carbon from valves.

Inspect each valve for wear, burn or distortion at its face and stem
and, as necessary, replace it.

Measure thickness “a” of valve head. If measured thickness ex-
ceeds limit, replace valve.

Valve Springs

Referring to data given below, check to be sure that each spring
is in sound condition, free of any evidence of breakage or weak-
ening. Remember, weakened valve springs can cause chatter,
not to mention possibility of reducing power output due to gas
leakage caused by decreased seating pressure.

Spring squareness:
Use a square and surface plate to check each spring for square-
ness in terms of clearance between end of valve spring and
square. Valve springs found to exhibit a larger clearance than limit
given below must be replaced.

Piston clearance:
Measure cylinder bore diameter and piston diameter to find their
difference which is piston clearance. Piston clearance should be
within specification as given below. If it is out of specification, re-
bore cylinder and use oversize piston.
Piston clearance: 0.02 – 0.04 mm (0.0008 – 0.0015 in.)
NOTE:
Cylinder bore diameters used here are measured in thrust
direction at two positions.

Ring groove clearance:
Before checking, piston grooves must be clean, dry and free of
carbon.
Fit new piston ring (1) into piston groove, and measure clearance
between ring and ring land by using thickness gauge (2).
If clearance is out of specification, replace piston.
Ring groove clearance:
Top: 0.03 – 0.07 mm (0.0012 – 0.0027 in.)

Piston Pin

Check piston pin, connecting rod small end bore and piston bore
for wear or damage, paying particular attention to condition of
small end bore bush. If pin, connecting rod small end bore or pis-
ton bore is badly worn or damaged, replace pin, connecting rod
or piston.

Piston pin clearance:
Check piston pin clearance in small end. Replace connecting rod
if its small end is badly worn or damaged or if measured clearance
exceeds limit.
