G6, WE-C, WL-3, WL-C, WLT-1, WLT-2 Only

1.  Set the A/C compressor on a level block.

2.  Turn on the magnetic clutch by connecting the battery voltage to the magnetic clutch connector terminal and the ground to the A/C compressor body.

3.  Fix a dial gauge on a magnetic base and set the measuring probe onto point A on the pressure plate surface.

4.  Turn off the magnetic clutch by disconnecting the ground from the A/C compressor body, then measure the dial gauge readings.

5.  Measure the clearance for point B and C on the pressure plate surface by repeating the above steps 2 through 4.

6.  If the clearance is not as specified, adjust it by changing the shim.

Note

•  The seven shim sizes from 0.7 mm {0.028 in} to 1.3 mm {0.051 in} differ in 0.1 mm {0.004 in} increments.

F2 Only

1.  Measure the clearance around the entire circumference between the pressure plate and A/C compressor pulley using a thickness gauge.

2.  Verify that the clearance.

•  If not within the specification, remove the pressure plate and adjust the clearance by changing the shim (0.2 mm {0.008 in}, 0.5 mm {0.02 in}) or the number of shims.

3.  If not within the specification, remove the pressure plate and adjust the clearance by changing the shim (0.1 mm {0.004 in}, 0.3 mm {0.012 in}, 0.5 mm {0.020 in}) or the number of shims.
