TM 9-2320-361-24-1 0037 00 0037 00-2 OIL PRESSURE REGULATOR HOUSING MAINTENANCE (Contd) 1. For general cleaning and inspection instructions, refer to WP 0021 00. Table 1. Oil Pressure Regulator Wear Limits. 2. Inspect bores (2) for burrs, scratches, or wear. Refer to table 1, Oil Pressure Regulator Wear Limits, for measurements. Remove burrs and scratches with crocus cloth. Replace if excessively burred, scratched, or worn. 3. Inspect oil pressure regulator spring (4) for distortion, cracks, and collapsed coils. Refer to table 1, Oil Pressure Regulator Wear Limits, for measurements. Replace oil pressure regulator spring (4) if distorted, cracked, coils are collapsed, or worn. 4. Using spring tester, compress oil pressure regulator spring (4) to 3.44 in. (87.38 mm). Load measured should be 24.6–28.6 lb (11.17–13.0 kg). Replace oil pressure regulator spring (4) if not within limits. 5. Inspect piston cooling relief valve spring (9) for distortion, cracks, collapsed coils, or wear. Refer to table 1, Oil Pressure Regulator Wear Limits, for measurements. Replace piston cooling relief valve spring (9) if distorted, cracked, coils are collapsed, or worn. 6. Using spring tester, compress piston cooling relief valve spring (9) to 1.38 in. (35.05 mm). Load measured should be 6.95–8.35 lb (3.16–3.79 kg). Replace piston cooling relief valve spring (9) if not within limits. 7. Inspect two plungers (3) for nicks, burrs, or scratches. Refer to table 1, Oil Pressure Regulator Wear Limits, for measurements. Replace plungers (3) if nicked, burred, scratched, or worn.
