If the bore alignment is out of
li;nits and the face alignment is
within
limits, shim the
flywheel
housing to the limit of face mis-

ment. If it is not within limits, re-
place the housing.

The same procedure to
correct
alignment may be used with the en-

CLEANING AND INSPECTION
RELEASE BEARING
Wipe all oil and dirt off the re-
lease bearing. The bearing is pre-
lubricated
and
should
not
be
deaned with solvent.
Inspect the bearing retainer for damaged
or loose spring clips and rivets.
Inspect the release bearing hub bore
for burrs which may cause the assembly
to drag on the transmission bearing
retainer.
Any such burrs should be cleaned
up with fine crocus cloth. If burrs are
found inspect the transmission input
shaft bearing retainer for evidence of
scoring. Any scoring should be polished
out with crocus cloth.
Coat bearing
retainer with a thin film of moly-base
grease.
Prior to release bearing installation,
apply a light film of MIC-75 A grease on
both sides of the release lever fork where
it contacts the release bearing hub and
retaining springs. Release lever pivots
and push rod seat.
Care must be exercised when applying
lubricants to the release bearing, release
bearing hub and the release lever fork to
