4.10 Timing Gear Backlash - Measure
Measure the backlash of timing gears using either method:
measure the gear backlash with a dial gauge applying its
probe to a tooth flank on the pitch circle at a right angle to
the tooth axis, or measure the clearance between gears by
inserting thickness gauges between the engaging gear
teeth.If the value exceeds the limit, replace the gears with
new ones.

4.11 Timing Gear Case - Install
(1) Apply sealant (ThreeBond 1211) to the rare plate pack-
ing mating surface, and install the packing.
(2) Apply sealant (ThreeBond 1211) to the packing mating
surface to timing gear case.
(3) Set the eye bolt to timing gear case, align it with the
dowel pins, and install the timing gear case.
(4) Tighten the bolts to the specified torque.
(5) Cut off excessive packing carefully from the bottom of
crankcase.
