b. Inspect the rotor tip clearance.

1. Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between the drive and driven rotor tips.

Standard tip clearance:

0.060 to 0.180 mm (0.00236 to 0.00709 in.)

Maximum tip clearance: 0.18 mm (0.00709 in.)

If the tip clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the rotors as a set.
