DESCRIPTION

Either
a

diaphragm
spring
or

coil

spring
type
clutch

is

fitted
to

the
vehicle
The

component
parts
of
the

diaphragm

spring
clutch
are
shown
in

Fig
E
l
and
the

component
parts

of
the
coil

spring
clutch
are
shown
in

Fig
E

The
clutch
is
of
the

single
dry
plate
type
consisting
of

the
drive

plate
clutch
coveT
and

pressure
plate
and
release

bearing

The
driven

plate
comprises
a

flexible
disc
and

splined
hub

which
slides
on
the

clutch
shaft
Friction
linings
are

rivetted
to

both

sides
of
the
disc

The
clutch
cover

and

pressure
plate
are
combined

by
nine

spring
setting
bolts
The

diaphragm
is
dished
to

maintain
a

constant

pressure
on
the

pressure
plate
which
in
turn
holds

the
driven

plate
in
contact
with
the

flywheel
The
release

bearing

is
a
sealed

type
ball

bearing
mounted
on
a

bearing
sleeve
Both

bearing
and
sleeve
are
operated

by
the
withdrawalleveT
when

the
clutch

pedal
is

operated

The
clutch

pedal
actuates
a
master

cylinder
which
transmits

fluid

under

pressure
to
a
slave

cylinder
The
movement
of

the

slave

cylinder
piston
operates
the
clutch
withdrawal
lever
via

a

push
rod

CLUTCH
Removal
and

Dismantling

The

gearbox
must

be
removed
from
the
vehicle
before

the
clutch
can

be
withdrawn
The

procedures
for

removing
the

gearbox
can
be
found
in
the
section
GEARBOX

If
a

diaphragm
clutch
is
fitted
insert
a

spare
clutch
shaft

or
a

special
alignment
tool
ST20600000
into
the

Slacken
the

six

securing
the

to
the

flywheel
by
a
single

turn
at
a
time
and
in
a
diagonal

pattern
until
the

spring

pressure

is
relieved
Remove
the
bolts

completely
and
lift

away
the

clutch

assembly

When

removing
the
coil

spring
type
clutch
it
will

be

necessary
to
insert
suitable
hooks

under
the
release
levers
to

restrain
the
tension
of
the

before

removing
the

Ensure
that
the
friction

linings
of
the

do
not

become
comtaminated
with
oil
or

when
removing
the

plate
from
the

should
not

be

Connect

a
hose
with

an
inner
diameter
of
approximately
6

to

the

pump
outlet
and

place
a

container
under
the
end
of

the

Note
that
the
inner

diameter
of
the

pipe
must
not
be

too

small
or

the
pipe
will
be

incapable
of

delivering
the
correct

quantity
of
fuel
when

Hold
the
end
of
the
hose
above
the

level
of
the

pump
and

operate
the

pump
for
more
than

if

or
if
a

reduced

quantity
of
fuel
flows
from
the
end
of

hose
Remove

the
pump
from
the
vehicle
and
test
as
follows

Connect
the

pump
to
a

fully
charged
battery
If
the

pump

now

operates
and

discharges
fuel

correctly
the
fault
does
not

lie
in
the

pump
but

may
be
attributed
to

any
of
the

following

causes

Battery
voltage
drop

poor
battery
earth
loose

wiring

loose
connections
blocked
hoses
or
a

faulty
carburettor

If
the

pump
does
not

operate
and

discharge
fuel
when

connected
to
the

battery
then
the

pump
itself
is

faulty
and

must
be
checked
as
follows

First
make
sure
that
current
is

flowing
This
will
be
indica

ted

by
sparking
at

the
tenninals
If
current
flows
the
trouble
is

caused

by
a

sticking

pump
plunger
or

piston
The

pump
must

be
dismantled
in

this
case
and
the

parts
thoroughly
cleaned
in

petrol

If

the
current
does
not
flow
a
coil
or
lead
wire
is
broken

and
the

pump
must

be
renewed
A

reduced
fuel
flow
is
caused

by
a

faulty

The
