INSPECTION OF CLUTCH PARTS
1. INSPECT CLUTCH DISC FOR WEAR OR DAMAGE
Using calipers, measure the rivet head depth.

Minimum rivet depth: 0.3 mm (0.012 in.)

If a problem is found, repair or replace the clutch disc.





2. INSPECT CLUTCH DISC RUN OUT
Using a dial indicator, check the disc runout.

Maximum runout: 0.8 mm (0.031 in.)

If runout is excessive, replace the disc.





3. INSPECT FLYWHEEL RUNOUT
Using a dial indicator, check the flywheel runout.

Maximum runout: 0.1 mm (0.004 in.)

If runout is excessive, repair or replace flywheel.





4. INSPECT PILOT BEARING
Turn the bearing by hand while applying force in the rotation direction.
If the bearing sticks or has much resistance, replace the pilot bearing.

HINT: The bearing is permanently lubricated and requires no cleaning or lubrication.





5. IF NECESSARY, REPLACE PILOT BEARING
(a) Using SST, remove the pilot bearing.

(b) Using SST, install the pilot bearing.
SST 09304-30012

HINT: After assembling the pilot bearing to the hood, insure that it rotates smoothly.





6. INSPECT DIAPHRAGM SPRING FOR WEAR
Using calipers, measure the diaphragm spring for depth and width of wear.
Maximum:
Depth 0.6 mm (0.024 in.)
Width 5.0 mm (0.197 in.)






7. INSPECT RELEASE BEARING
Turn the bearing by hand while applying force in the rotation direction.
If the bearing sticks or has much resistance, replace the release bearing.
