5th Gear Thrust Clearance
1. Measure the 5th gear thrust clearance by using a dial indicator. Clearance should be within 0.100 - 0.220 mm (0.003 - 0.0087 inch).
2. If the clearance exceeds 0.270 mm (0.0106 inch), check the contact surfaces of the 5th gear and the clutch hub. Replace worn or damaged parts.
