TM 5-3805-260-24TORQUE CONVERTER CLEARANCE CHECKS3.There must be a minimum radial (running) clearance between the turbine and stator. Check the clearance between the turbine and stator as follows:a) Put turbine (I) on a smooth flat surface. Install tooling(A) at four positions around the turbine as shown.b) Put stator (3) in position in the turbine. Make sure thewelded fins in the stator are not in contact with tooling(A).c) Put tooling (B) against the stator as shown. Move thestator toward tooling (B) until it makes contact with theinside diameter in the turbine. Adjust the dial indicatoruntil it is on zero. Slide stator (3) 180° away from tooling(B) until it makes contact with the other side of theturbine. Make a record of the dimension measured.d) Make this check at several locations around theturbine. Make a record of each dimension measured.The largest dimension measured is used for theclearance between the two parts. The total clearancemeasured across the diameters must be .012 to .018 in.(0.30 to 0.46 mm) with a maximum permissibleclearance of .030 in. (0.76 mm). The radial (running)clearance is half of the dimensions measured.3-175
