(1) Remove th lockwire from the pressure regu-
lator.
(2) Using a wrench, turn guide (14) clockwise to
increase pressure; counterclockwise to decrease. Ad-
just the regulator until oil pressure is within limits of
step d. One turn will change oil pressure approximately
13 psig.
NOTE
An approximate starting adjustment can
be made by bottoming guide (14); then
backing out 5 1/2 turns.
(3) Lockwire guide (14) after adjustment to pre-
vent movement in either direction.
5-27. Oil Filter Housing
a. Removal.
(1) Remove eight self-locking nuts (7, figure
5-11) and washer (8).
(2) Lift housing (9) out of the gearbox. Discard
gasket (10).
(3) Remove check valve (12). Discard preformed
packing (11 and 13).
(4) Remove preformed packing (19 and 20) from
oil tubes (21 and 22) and discard preformed packing.
b. Installation.
(1) Lubricate new preformed packing (19 and 20)
with oil (item 7 or 8, table 2-2) and install on oil tubes
(21 and 22).
(2) Lubricate new preformed packing (11 and 13)
with oil (item 7 or 8, table 2-2) and install on check valve
(12). Install the check valve in the gearbox.
(3) Place new gasket (10) in the gearbox.
(4) Insert housing (9) into the gearbox and engage
the mounting studs. Ensure that the housing is mated
with oil tubes (21 and 22) and with check valve (12).
(5) Retain the oil filter housing with eight washer
(8) and self-locking nuts (7). Tighten the nuts to 35-40
in. lb.
5-28. Internal Oil Check Valve
The internal oil check valve (12, figure 5-11) is
located under the oil filter housing (9), inside the gear-
box. It serves to prevent oil from draining out of the oil
tank and into the gearbox while the engine is shut down.
a. Removal. (Refer to paragraph 5-27a.)
b. Cleaning. Clean the internal check valve by flush-
ing with solvent (item 3, table 2-2) and air dry.
c. Installation. (Refer to paragraph 5-27b.)
5-29. External Oil Check Valve.
The external oil check valve (4, figure 5-12) is located
in the oil supply tube to the turbine. It serves to prevent
oil from draining into the turbine bearing cavities while
the engine is shut down.
a. Removal.
(1) Remove self-locking nut (5) and bolt (1) that
secure clamps (2 and 3) together.
(2) Loosen the two oil tube coupling nuts and
remove check valve (4) from the engine.
b. Cleaning. Clean the external check valve by flush-
ing with solvent (item 3, table 2-2) and air dry.
c. Deleted.
d. Installation.
To prevent oil starvation of turbine bear-
ings, be sure the check valve is installed with
the end marked "OUT" and the arrow
pointing toward the rear of the engine.
(1) Install check valve (4) on the pressure oil tube
with the hex end marked "OUT" and the arrow pointing
toward the rear of the engine. Tighten the coupling nuts
to 80-120 in. lb.
(2) Secure clamps (2 and 3) together with bolt (1)
and nut (5). Tighten the nut to 35-40 in. lb.
5-30. External Sump Pump.
a. Removal.
Remove two bolts (14) holding the scavenge oil exter-
nal sump (15) to the firewall shield. Remove sump. Dis-
card preformed packing (6).
b. Installation.
Install preformed packing (16) in the seal groove of
the power turbine support scavenge oil opening. Apply
a light coat of sealer (Permatex 1372W, NSN
8030-00-599-7753) over the preformed packing. Posi-
tion sump (15) on the firewall shield. Apply Never Seez
(item 26, table 2-2) to two bolts (14) and install. Tighten
