Bevel Gears (Hypoid G ears)
Bevel Gear Sound Adjustment
A bevel gear sound adjustment must be performed only
by a properly trained service technician. The standard fac-
tory setting for adjusting the bevel gears is described on
page 4-59. Ordinarily, the bevel gears do not require adjust-
ments. However, in case the customer strongly requests a
reduction in the whining sound when the engine is cold, it
is possible to do so to a c ertain extent. When this is done,
the gear lash sound increases after the engine has warmed
up. This section explains how to change the factory setting
upon the request of the customer.
Common Preparation for Both the Camshaft and Crank-
shaft Sides
•
Mark [C] the hexagonal portion [A] of the gear case to
align with the locknut stop screw hole [B]. (Although the
right drawing shows the camshaft side, the crankshaft
side is also similar.)
Locknut [D]
•
Start the engine and warm it up thoroughly.
NOTE
○
Perform the gear adjustment when the oil temperature
in the oil pan is at 80°C (176°F) (and the oil pan outside
surface temperature is 73°C (163°F)).
WARNING
During adjustment, do not touch the exhaust pipe,
which could be hot.
•
Remove the locknut stop screw. While holding the gear
case [A] with the wrench [B], use the hook wrench [C] to
loosen the locknut [D].
Camshaft Side Bevel Gear
•
To eliminate the gear lash sound, turn the gear case in
direction [A].
This increases the gear whining sound when the engine
is cold.
CAUTION
When turning the gear case in direction [A], it must
not be turned more than 70° from the locknut stop
screw hole (factory standard setting), as doing so
could damage the bevel gears.
•
To eliminate the gear whining sound, turn the gear case
slowly in direction [B].
This decreases the gear whining sound when the engine
is cold.
