Oil Jet Bolt Inspection

  1. Remove the oil jet bolt .
  2. Inspect the oil jet bolt as follows:
    • Make sure that a 0.6 mm (1/64 in) diameter drill bit will go through the oil intake (0.7 mm (0.028 in) diameter). Make sure the check ball (A) moves smoothly and has a stroke of about 4.0 mm (0.157 in).
    • Check the oil jet bolt operation with an air nozzle. It should take at least 120 kPa (1.22 kgf/cm2 , 17.4 psi) to unseat the check ball.
