Honda Fit: Secondary Shaft 2nd Gear Axial Clearance Inspection (A/T)

1. Install the thrust needle bearing (A), the needle bearing (B), 2nd gear (C), the thrust needle bearing (D), the 43 x 54.5 mm thrust washer (E), the 39 mm cotters (F), and the cotter retainer (G) on the secondary shaft (H), then secure them with the snap ring (I).

2. Set the dial indicator (A) on 2nd gear (B).

3. Lift 2nd gear (A) up while holding the secondary shaft (B), and use the dial indicator (C) to read the 2nd   gear axial clearance.

4. Measure the 2nd gear axial clearance in at least three places while turning 2nd gear. Use the average as the actual clearance.

   Standard:

   0.04пјЌ0.12 mm (0.002пјЌ0.005 in)

5. If the clearance is out of standard, remove the 43 x 54.5 mm   thrust washer and measure its thickness.

6. Select and install a new thrust washer, then recheck.
