Oil Jet Inspection

  1. Remove the oil jet, and inspect it as follows.
    • Make sure that a 1.5 mm (0.059 in.) diameter drill will go through the nozzle hole (A) (1.6 mm (0.062 in.) diameter).
    • Insert the end of a 1.1 mm (0.043 in.) drill into the oil intake (1.2 mm (0.047 in.) diameter).
    • Make sure the check ball (B) moves smoothly and has a stroke of approximately 4.0 mm (0.16 in.).
    • Check the oil jet operation with an air nozzle. It should take at least 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm2 , 28 psi) to unseat the check ball.
      NOTE: Replace the oil jet assembly if the nozzle is damaged or bent.

  2. The mounting torque is critical. Be very precise when installing the oil jet.
