(12) Inspect seat plate (17, fig. 3-60) for heat discoloration or cracks.
Check for flatness. If
distorted, discolored or cracked, replace with a new seat plate.
(13) Install piston (16) in
seat plate (17). Used pistons (16) must be so
positioned in
the seat
plate (17) to allow placement of the pistons in their respective cylinder block bores.
(14) If both seat plate (17), two locktabs (21), spacers (18), bearing plates (19), clips (20),
and capscrews (22) were disassembled, reassemble. Do not tighten capscrews (22).
(15) Spread a light film of oil on the surface of the wear plate (15) and slide piston (16) and
return plate (17) assembly into place. (Refer to fig. 3-86).
(16) Install two spacers
(18, fig. 3-60), bearing plate (19), clip (20), two new locktabs (21), and
Check clearance between each piston (16) and-wear plate (15) surface. Clearance should not be less
than 0.003 in. (.07620 mm) nor more than 0.007 in. (0.17780 mm). Clearance of from 0.0015 (.0380
mm) to 0.003 (.07620 mm) is acceptable only if the rotating piston (16) assemblies spin freely by hand
with no binding or tight spots. Turn up four locktabs (21).
