1. Check the inner and outer circumference, tooth face, and side- face of the inner and outer gears for damage or abnormal wear.
2. Measure the side clearance between the main oil pump housing edge and the inner and outer gears.
3. Make sure the side clearance is within specification. If the mea- surement is out of specification, replace the inner and outer
gears with new ones as a set. Refer to DLN-142, "
Disassembly
and Assembly".
Sub-oil Pump
1. Check the inner and outer circumference, tooth face, and side-face of the inner and outer gears for damage or abnormal wear.
2. Measure the side clearance between the sub oil pump housing edge and the inner and outer gears.
3. Make sure the side clearance is within specification. If the mea- surement is out of specification, replace the inner and outer
gears with new ones as a set. Refer to DLN-179, "
Inspection
and Adjustment".
Control Valve
• Check resistance between the terminals of the clutch pressure
solenoid valve, 2-4WD shift solenoid valve, clutch pressure switch,
line pressure switch and the transfer fluid temperature sensor.
Refer to DLN-57, "
Component Inspection" (clutch pressure sole-
noid valve), DLN-61, "
Component Inspection" (2-4WD solenoid
valve), DLN-73, "
Component Inspection" (clutch pressure switch),
DLN-76, "
Component Inspection" (line pressure switch) and DLN-
69, "Component Inspection" (transfer fluid temperature sensor).
• Check the sliding faces of the control valves and plugs for abnor- mality. If any is found, replace the control valve assembly with a
new one. Refer to DLN-142, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
CAUTION:
Replace control valve body together with clutch return spring
as a set. Specification : Refer to

c. Install each control valve (3), springs (4), and plugs (2) to the upper body (5), and install retainer plates (1) to hold them in
place.
CAUTION:
• To insert control valves into upper body, place upper
body on a level surface in order to prevent flaw or dam-
age.
• Make sure each control valve is smoothly inserted.
d. Install the reverse balls, relief balls and relief springs, accumula- tor pistons and valve springs to the upper body.
e. Install the lower body and separator plate to the upper body. CAUTION:
Do not reuse separator plates.
f. With the lower body down, tighten the two bolts shown.
g. Apply ATF to the new O-rings, and install them to each solenoid valve, switch and terminal body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse O-rings.
h. Install the following to the control valve assembly: • Clutch pressure solenoid valve
• Clutch pressure switch
• 2-4WD shift solenoid valve
• Line pressure switch
• Transfer fluid temperature sensor
