Remove locknut and driver gear from shaft. If gear is
too tight to remove by hand, use a puller, hammering
on end of shaft to loosen gear will damage pump.
Take out slotted pipe plug from bottom of crankcase.
By means of a 5/32 inch Allen wrench, remove
lockscrew from pipe plughole. Withdraw oil pump from

CAMSHAFT GEAR
If it is necessary that the camshaft gear be removed,
first pry oil sling off crankshaft, and remove thrust
plunger and spring from end of camshaft. Take out the
three capscrews and lockwashers, and remove gear
from camshaft using a screw driver or similar wedge
tool.
The camshaft gear has offset mounting holes to
provide accurate assembly for valve timing. The gear
can only be put on the correct way for matching up the
timing mark with that of the crankshaft gear. See Fig.
15.
IDLER GEAR AND SHAFT
A tapped hole in the side of the crankcase contains a
setscrew for locking idler shaft in place. See Fig. 16.
Remove screw with a 5/32" Allen wrench. Disassemble
