CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
When the transaxle is removed, be sure to use a new clutch release with bearing cylinder and new installation bolts. Removal of the transaxle allows the compressed clutch release with bearing cylinder to return to its original position, and dust could damage the seal of the clutch release with bearing cylinder, possibly causing clutch fluid leaks.
PROCEDURE
INSTALL CLUTCH DISC ASSEMBLY
| *1 | Clutch disc |
| *2 | Flywheel |
Insert SST into the clutch disc assembly, then insert them both into the flywheel sub-assembly.
Note
Insert clutch disc assembly in the correct direction.
INSTALL CLUTCH COVER ASSEMBLY
| *a | Temporarily |
| *b | Matchmark |
Align the matchmark on the clutch cover assembly with that on the flywheel sub-assembly.
Following the procedures shown in the illustration, tighten the 6 bolts in order, starting with the bolt located near the knock pin at the top.
Tech Tips
Following the order in the illustration, tighten the bolts evenly one at a time.
Move SST up and down, right and left lightly after checking that the disc is in the center, and tighten the bolts.
INSPECT AND ADJUST CLUTCH COVER ASSEMBLY
Using a dial indicator with a roller instrument, check the diaphragm spring tip alignment.
| Maximum non-alignment |
|---|
| 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) |
If the alignment is not as specified, using SST, adjust the diaphragm spring tip alignment.
INSTALL CLUTCH RELEASE WITH BEARING CYLINDER ASSEMBLY
Temporarily tighten the bleeder clutch release tube onto the clutch release with bearing cylinder.
Clean and degrease all installation surfaces for the clutch release with bearing cylinder.
| *1 | Bleeder Clutch Release Tube |
| *2 | Clutch Release with Bearing Cylinder |
| *3 | Clutch Tube Boot |
| *4 | Clutch Release Bleeder |
Install the new clutch release with bearing cylinder with the 3 new bolts.
Note
The clutch release with bearing cylinder and installation bolts cannot be reused and must be replaced with new ones.
Clean and degrease all installation surfaces and make sure the clutch release with bearing cylinder fits securely with the transaxle during installation. The first bolt should be tighten with a hand holding the clutch release with bearing cylinder.
Ensure that none of the clutch disc spline grease adheres to the clutch release with bearing cylinder.
The clutch release with bearing cylinder cannot be disassembled.
Install the clutch tube boot onto the transaxle.
Install the release cylinder bleeder plug onto the clutch release bleeder.
Install the release cylinder bleeder plug cap.
Temporarily tighten the bleeder clutch release tube onto the clutch release bleeder.
Temporarily tighten the 2 bolts and install the clutch release bleeder.
Using a union nut wrench 10 mm, install the bleeder clutch release tube.

REMOVE CLUTCH RELEASE BLEEDER SUB-ASSEMBLY
Separate the bleeder clutch release tube from the clutch release bleeder sub-assembly.
Remove the 2 bolts and the clutch release bleeder sub-assembly.
INSPECT CLUTCH PIPE LINE
Using SST, apply pressure of 100 kPa (1.02 kgf/cm2, 14.5 psi) to the clutch pipe location shown in the illustration and confirm that pressure is maintained for 15 seconds or more.
If the pressure drops, replace the bleeder clutch release tube.
INSTALL CLUTCH RELEASE BLEEDER SUB-ASSEMBLY
Temporarily tighten the bleeder clutch release tube onto the clutch release bleeder sub-assembly.
Install the 2 bolts and clutch release bleeder sub-assembly.
Using a union nut wrench 10 mm, install the bleeder clutch release tube.
