Measure the backlash between camshaft gear (2) and gear segment tool (3). When the gear segment tool is held stationary, the backlash between the gears is 0.356 ± 0.254 mm (0.014 ± 0.010 inch). Lightly tap the stub shaft with a soft mallet to move the gear segment tool closer or further away to the cam gear as necessary.. Adjust the backlash between the camshaft gear and the adjustable idler gear assembly. The backlash should be 0.356 ± 0.254 mm (0.014 ± 0.010 inch). Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Gear Group (Front) - Time" for the backlash adjustment procedure. Tighten nuts (17) and the bolt to a torque of 55 ± 10 N·m (41 ± 7 lb ft). Install stub shaft (20).
