4l60e Pump vane clearance
What is the normal/acceptable clearances that everyone is running as far as the side clearances on the 10 vane pumps?
Also do you measure just by putting the feeler gauge in one vane, or do you try to do one on each side?
Thanks

There shouldn't be any clearance. If you feel there is gap of any kind just replace the vanes. They're like 0.10 each. Even if ones in good visual shape I replace the rotor guide, vanes, and rings.

Thanks, the clearance was around .006"...I wonder if that was part of the cause for clutch failure. I already ran out and got a pump kit, clearance is much tighter.
Haha, actually the trans is already done/back in the car just have to finish a few things up. Thanks again for your help.
