1. INSPECT SYNCHRONIZER RING FOR FIRST GEAR
a. Check for wear or damage.
b. Check the braking effect of the synchronizer ring.
Turn the synchronizer ring in one direction while pushing it to the gear cone and check that the ring is locked.
If the braking effect is insufficient, lightly rub the synchronizer ring and gear cone by applying a small amount of fine lapping compound.
NOTE:
-
Wash off completely the fine lapping compound after rubbing.
-
Check again the braking effect of the synchronizer ring.
c. Measure the clearance between the synchronizer ring back and gear spline end.
Maximum clearance: 0.6 mm (0.024 in.)
If the clearance is less than the limit, replace the synchronizer ring and gear cone by applying a small amount of fine lapping compound.
NOTE: Wash off completely the fine lapping compound after rubbing.
