CLUTCH e - §
Improperly seated flywheels and clutch housings
are other causes of clutch failure. Improper seating
will produce misalignment and subsequent clutch
problems.
Tighten the clutch housing bolts to proper torque
before installing any struts. Also be sure the align­
ment dowels are i n place and seated i n the block and
housing beforehand.
The use of non-standard or low quality parts can
also lead to problems and wear. Use the recom­
mended factory quality parts to avoid comebacks.
INSPECTION AND DIAGNOSIS CHARTS
The clutch inspection chart (Fig. 9) outlines items
to be checked before and during clutch installation.
Use the chart as a check list to help avoid overlook­
ing potential problem sources during service opera­
tions.
The diagnosis charts describe common clutch prob­
lems, causes and correction. Fault conditions are
listed at the top of each chart. Conditions, causes and
corrective action are outlined i n the indicated col­
umns.
The charts are provided as a convenient reference
when diagnosing faulty clutch operation.
