Reassembling starter
Applying grease
Note: To avoid mixing of different greases, remove old grease before applying new grease. Make sure that the starter mounting surface, brushes, commutator, and other electric current conducting components are free from grease.


Illustration 18 g02241239
1. When overhauling the starter, apply grease to the following sliding surfaces, gears, and bearings.
2. Tighten the nut (35) to 10.8 ± 1.0 N·m (95.0 ± 9.0 lb in).
3. Tighten the bolt (36) to 3.32 ± 0.77 N·m (29.00 ± 7.00 lb in).

(34) Terminal M
1. Since, connecting the wires of the reassembled starter as shown that in the diagram causes the pinion to extends and rotate slowly. Disconnect the connector from terminal M to stop the rotation.


Illustration 20 g02241254
2. Lightly push the tip of the extended pinion shaft with a finger. Measure the distance of the shaft movement to obtain the pinion gap measurement. Adjust the pinion gap by varying the number of packings installed at the magnetic switch section so that it conforms to the standard value. When the number of packings is increased, the pinion gap decreases. If proper adjustment cannot be achieved by varying the number of packings, replace the lever.

Separating front bracket from stator
Note: Do not disassemble the alternator unless the repair is necessary. Do not insert the screwdrivers too deep, as it can damage the stator.


Illustration 23 g02241274
1. Remove the through bolts.
2. With two flat-head screwdrivers inserted between the front bracket and stator, pry apart.
Removing pulley
Note: When setting the rotor in a vise, be sure to hold the base of the rotor claw. Do not hold the rotor claw, as damage the claw.


Illustration 24 g02241275
1. Apply a cloth to the rotor and set it in a vise.
2. Remove the pulley nut and then pull out the pulley and spacer.
3. Remove the rotor from the front bracket.
Removing stator
Note: Unsoldering must be finished as quickly as possible. Extended heating will damage the diodes.


25 g02241277
(47) Rectifier
(48) Soldering
1. Cut off the joint of the stator and remove the stator from the rectifier.
2. Unscrew the rectifier mounting screws, and dismount the rectifier.
Inspecting rectifier


Illustration 26 g02241278
Check that diodes in a rectifier function properly. To check, measure both negative (-) and positive (+) resistance alternately twice. If both infinite negative and infinite positive resistances are observed, case, replace the rectifier with a new one.

Note: Use a wide measuring range as much as possible. The current flow during test is much lower than the current that normally flows in the rectifier, by which the accurate resistance may not be measured using a tester. This tendency is noticeable if the measuring range is small.
Inspecting rotor


Illustration 27 g02241279
1. Check that there is continuity between slip rings. If no continuity is observed, replace the rotor with a new one.

Illustration 28 g02241280
2. Check that there is no continuity between the slip ring and the shaft (or the core). If continuity is observed, replace the rotor with a new one.
