B 18 oil pump 444-544

For clarification the radial clearance is the clearance between the ends of the teeth of the gears and the housing and the clearance should be 0.003" - 0.0055", aka three to five and a half thou.

Flank clearance is measured between the teeth with a very narrow feeler gauge and they say 0.006" - 0.014" or six to fourteen thou.

Since oil is fairly viscous the pump doesn't need to be too tight.
