5. Install forward clutch pressure plate and retaining
ring. Using a feeler gage check clearance between forward
clutch pressure plate and faced plate (Fig. 7A3-92).
The specifications for this transmission call for a
clearance of no less than .O1ln and no greater than .O82".
There are three pressure plates available which are identified
by tangs adjacent to the source identification mark (Fig. 7A3-
93). These three pressure plates have different thicknesses.
If the clearance between the forward clutch pressure
plate and the faced plate checks out to be less than .011", a
thinner pressure plate should be used to give a clearance
between .011" and .082". If the clearance checks out to be
greater than .082", a thicker pressure plate should be used
to give a clearance between .0 1 1
"
and .082". If the clearance
checks out to be between .011" and .082", no change of
pressure plate is necessary.
