BLEEDING OF CLUTCH SYSTEM HINT: If any work is done on the clutch system or if air is suspected in the clutch lines, bleed the system of air. NOTICE: Do not let brake fluid remain on a painted surface. Wash it off immediately. 1. FILL CLUTCH RESERVOIR WITH BRAKE FLUID Check the reservoir frequently. Add fluid if necessary. 2. CONNECT VINYL TUBE TO BLEEDER PLUG Insert the other end of the tube in a half-full container of brake fluid. 3. BLEED CLUTCH LINE (a) Slowly pump the clutch pedal several times. (b) While depressing the pedal, loosen the bleeder plug until the fluid starts to run out. Then close the bleeder plug. (c) Repeat this procedure until there are no bubbles in the fluid. HINT: Do not reuse the fluid that was bled. It contains air. INSPECTION OF CLUTCH START SYSTEM CHECK CLUTCH PEDAL 1. CHECK THAT PEDAL HEIGHT IS CORRECT (See page CL-3) 2. CHECK THAT PEDAL FREEPLAY AND PUSH ROD PLAY ARE CORRECT (See page CL-3) CHECK CLUTCH START SYSTEM CHECK CLUTCH START SYSTEM (a) Check that the engine does not start when the clutch pedal is released. (b) Check that the engine starts when the clutch pedal is fully depressed. (c) Check that clearance "A" is greater than 1 mm (0.04 in.) when the clutch pedal is fully depressed. If necessary, adjust or replace the clutch start switch. INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT OF CLUTCH START SWITCH 1. INSPECT CONTINUITY OF CLUTCH START SWITCH (a) Check that there is continuity between terminals when the switch is ON (pushed). (b) Check that there is no continuity between terminals when the switch is OFF (free). If continuity is not as specified, replace the switch. 10.0 ± 0.5 mm (0.394 ± 0.020 in.)
