CAUTION
Whenever the oil filter base is removed from the

(1) Remove four screws securing the cooler to
the crankcase.

can create airborne particles that may enter
the eyes. Pressure shall not exceed 30 psi
(206 kPa). Wearing of goggles is required to
avoid injury to personnel.
Cleaning solvent (Appendix D, Item 54) is both
toxic and flammable. Keep off skin. Use only
in a well-ventilated area and avoid prolonged

and housing plate for nicks, burrs, and scoring.
CAUTION
The inner and outer rotors are a matched set
and cannot be replaced separately.

rotor (1) and the pump housing (2) with a feeler
gauge. The limits 0.0055 to 0.0095 inch (0.140
to 0.241 mm) must be maintained.
