CLEANING AND INSPECTION

RELEASE BEARING

Wipe all oil and dirt off the release

bearing. The bearing is prelubricated

and should not be cleaned with sol-

vent.

Inspect the bearing retainer for

loose spring clips and rivets.

Inspect the release bearing assembly

for burrs which may cause the assem-

bly to drag on the transmission bear-

ing retainer. Any such burrs should be

cleaned up with fine crocus cloth. If

burrs are found, inspect the transmis-

sion input shaft bearing retainer for

evidence of scoring. Any scoring

should be polished out with crocus

cloth. Coat the bearing retainer with a

thin film of lithium-base grease

(C3VY-19586-A). Prior to release

bearing installation, apply a light film

of lithium base grease (C3VY-

19586-A) on both sides of the release

lever fork where it contacts the release

bearing hub and retaining springs.

Apply a light film of lithium base

grease (C3VY-19586-A) plate to the

release bearing surface that contacts

the pressure plate fingers. Carefully

fill the grease groove inside the bear-

ing hub with lithium base grease (no

polyethylene). Clean all excess grease

from the bore of the bearing hub. Ex-

cess grease will be forced onto the

spline by the transmission input shaft

bearing retainer and will contaminate

the clutch disc. Also, care must be

exercised when applying lubricants to

the release bearing, release bearing

hub and the release lever fork to avoid

excessive grease from contaminating

the clutch disc.

Hold the bearing inner race and ro-

tate the outer race while applying

pressure to it. If the bearing rotation

is rough or noisy, replace the bearing.

Most release bearing failures are

caused by improper clutch pedal ad-

justments. If the clutch linkage does

not have enough free travel, the re-

lease bearing will constantly touch the

release fingers and will spin whenever

the engine is running.

When installing a release bearing on

vehicles equipped with separate hub

and bearing, use the tool shown in

Fig. 5.

Release bearing failure can be

caused by the release lever contact

points being out of plane. Check the

wear on the release bearing assembly

where the release lever contacts it.

If one side of the assembly shows

more wear than the other, the release
lever is bent out of plane, or is not

centering on the bracket on the fly-

wheel housing.

Misalignment between the engine

and transmission can cause release

bearing failure. Other symptoms of

misalignment are transmission jump-

ing out of gear, especially third gear,

drive line vibration; excessive wear in

the pilot bushing, excessive clutch disc

spin time resulting in gear clash, and

excessive transmission gear wear.

PRESSURE PLATE AND COVER

Inspect the surface of the pressure

plate for burn marks, scores, or rid-

ges.
Generally, pressure plate resur-

facing is not recommended. However

minor burn marks, scores, or ridges

may be removed. During the resurfac-

ing process, the flatness of the pres-

sure plate must be maintained. If the

pressure plate is badly heat-checked or

deeply scored, replace the pressure

plate and cover assembly. Clean pres-

sure plate and flywheel surfaces with a

suitable solvent, such as alcohol to be

sure the surfaces are free from any oil

film. Do not use cleaners with petrole-

um base, and do not immerse the

pressure plate in the solvent.

Place the plate on the floor, being

careful not to score or scratch the sur-

face.
Force each individual finger

down, then release quickly. If the fin-

ger does not return quickly, a binding

condition is indicated, and the pres-

sure plate should be replaced.

The pressure plate should be lubri-

cated with a lithium-base grease be-

tween the driving lugs and the edges

of the pressure plate openings, as

shown in Fig. 6. Depress the pressure

plate fingers fully, apply the lubricant,

and then move the fingers up and

down until the lubricant is worked in.

Do not apply excessive lubricant.

CLUTCH DISC

Inspect the clutch disc facings for

oil or grease. Eliminate the source of

any oil or grease before replacing the

disc. An excessive amount of grease in

the pilot bushing or release bearing

hub will find its way to the disc fac-

ings.
Too much lubricant in the trans-

mission or a plugged transmission

vent will force the transmission lubri-

cant out the input shaft and onto the

disc facings. Also, rear main bearing

oil seal leaks or oil leaks from the fly-

wheel mounting bolts can contaminate

the clutch disc.
Inspect the clutch disc for worn or

loose facings. Check the disc for worn

or loose facings. Check the disc for

distortion and for loose rivets at the

hub.
Check for broken springs.

Springs loose enough to rattle will not

cause noise when the car is operating.

Replace the disc assembly if any of

these defects are present. Be especially

careful when installing a new disc to

avoid dropping it or contaminating it

with oil or grease.

PILOT BUSHING

Check the fit of the clutch pilot

bushing in the bore of the crankshaft.

The bushing is pressed into the

crankshaft and should not be loose.

Inspect the inner surface of the bush-

ing for wear or a bell-mouthed condi-

tion. If the bushing is worn or dam-

aged, replace the bushing with a new

service bearing. Refer to the applica-

ble engine for the replacement proce-

dure.

lease bearing surface that contacts the

pressure plate release fingers. Fill the

grease groove of the release bearing

hub with lithium base grease (C3VY-

19586-A). Clean all excess grease

from inside the bore of bearing hub.

Excess grease will be forced onto the

spline by the transmission input shaft

bearing retainer and will contaminate

the clutch disc. Also, place the release

bearing and hub on the release lever.

5.
Make certain that the flywheel

housing and the cylinder block mount-

ing surfaces are clean. Position the

felt washer on the pivot in the fly-

wheel housing. Slip the pivot into the

Wash all parts, except the ball

bearings and seals in a suitable clean-

ing solvent. Brush or scrape all foreign

matter from the parts. Be careful not

to damage any parts with the scraper.

Do not clean, wash or soak transmis-

sion seals in cleaning solvents. Dry all

parts with compressed air.

2.
Rotate the ball bearings in a

cleaning solvent until all lubricant is

for small nicks or burrs that could

cause misalignment of the transmis-

sion with the flywheel housing. Re-

move all small nicks or burrs with a

fine stone.

3.
Replace a cover that is bent or

distorted. Make sure that the vent

hole in the cover is open.

4.
Check the condition of the shift

levers, forks, shift rails and the lever

and shafts.

5.
Examine the ball bearing races

for cracks, wear or roughness. Inspect

the balls for looseness, wear, end play
or other damage. Check the bearings

for looseness in the bores. If any of

these conditions exist, replace the

bearings.

6. Replace roller bearings that are

broken, worn or rough.

7.
Replace the countershaft (clust-

er) gear if the teeth are chipped, brok-

en or worn. Replace the countershaft

if it is bent, scored or worn.

GROMMET REMOVAL
AND

INSTALLATION

The column-mounted shift lever
as-
sembly incorporates
an oil
impregnat-

ed plastic grommet
in the
end
of
each

lever
arm. A
special tool T67P-

7341-A
is
required
to
install the grom-

met
in the
shift lever,
and to
install

the shift linkage
rod
into
the
grom-

met. Remove
and

and force

the
rod out of the
grommet. Remove

the grommet from
the
shift lever
by

cutting
off the
large shoulder with
a

sharp knife. The groin met must
be re-

moved from
the
shift lever
and a new

one installed each rime
'he rod is
dis-

connected.

2.
Before installing
a
new grommet,
