in the Magneto side crankcase.

mating surface to the bearing using a dial caliper
and a straight edge. Subtract the thickness of the
straightedge and record.
3. Install the gear on the oil pump and measure the
width of the pump and gear. Subtract this
measurement from the measurement recorded in
Step 2.
