Mini Cooper Gear Idler 4 Sync With .750 Shaft Diameter

If the Mini drive train has a weak link, it’s the connection between the engine and the transmission. The idler gear often takes the abuse caused by wear and/or poor assembly techniques. We see more of these go bad than any other engine component! In stock for the 4-synchro pre A+ transmission – keep a spare! The best way to identify this gear is that is has a shaft diameter of .750"

Insert the idler gear with the thrust washers it came with into the gearbox. Bolt the end casing in place with the gasket. Tighten to the spec torque. Measure the idler gear float with a feeler gauge. It should be ~0.003". If it's more than that, and it always is, insert the appropriate OVERSIZE thrust washer. These are available from Mini Mania. I forget what the oversizes are but they are stated in most parts manuals. Thanks to Johnny B I have a complete selection in stock for all my rebuild jobs :-)
