7C1-6 CLUTCH (HYDRAULIC TYPE)
1. Clutch pedal arm
2. Dash panel
3. Full stroke point
4. Release point
Cylinder Push Rod Play "D"
1) Press clutch pedal gradually with finger, stop when slight in-
crease of resistance is felt and measure how much pedal has
moved (push rod play) as represented by "D" as shown. Then
check its conformance to below specification.
Push rod play "D": Max. 3 mm (0.12 in.)
2) If "D" is not within specification, replace clevis pin or pedal arm.
Clutch Release Margin "E"
1) Pull up parking brake fully and block wheels.
2) Start engine and keep engine at idle with neutral gear position.
3) Without clutch pedal depressed, be slow to shift the shift lever
to reverse position until transmission emits gear contact noise.
4) Be slow to depress clutch pedal, and at gear contact noise died
position (release point) stop depressing.
5) Measure distance between release point and full stroke point on
clutch pedal which is shown by "E" in the figure.
Clutch release margin "E": 25 mm (1.0 in.) or more
6) If "E" is not within specification, it is possible that air is trapped
in this system. If suspected so, bleed air.
Upon completion of above inspection and adjustment, start en-
gine and check clutch for proper operation.
CLUTCH FLUID
Fluid level should be always between MIN and MAX lines on reser-
voir. If fluid decreases quickly, check for leakage, repair leaky point,
if any, and add fluid up to MAX level.
NOTE:
D Brake fluid damages painted surface badly. Should it get on
painted surface, remove it immediately and clean surface
thoroughly.
D Do not use shock absorber fluid or any other fluid which
contains mineral oil. Do not use container which has been
used for mineral oil or which is wet from water. Mineral oil
will cause swelling and distortion of rubber parts in hydrau-
lic clutch system and water will mix with brake fluid, lower-
ing fluid boiling point.
Keep all fluid containers capped to prevent contamination.
D Make sure not to use fluid whose container cap was first
opened more than a year ago.
