SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
CLUTCH PEDAL INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTMZlFAAP
1.Measure the clutch pedal height (from the face of the pedal
pad to the firewall).
Standard value: 177
- 182 mm (6.97 - 7.17 in.)
If the clutch pedal height is not within the standard value
range, adjust as follows:
For vehicles without auto-cruise control system, turn and
adjust the bolt so that the pedal height is the standard
value, and then secure by tightening the lock nut to the
specified torque.
Vehicles with auto-cruise control system, disconnect the
clutch switch connector and turn the switch for standard
clutch pedal height. Tighten the lock nut to the specified
torque.
Specified torque: 13 Nm (9
ft.lbs.)
NOTEWhen the pedal height is lower than the standard value,
loosen the bolt or clutch switch, and then turn the push rod
to make the adjustment. After making the adjustment,
tighten the bolt or clutch switch to reach the pedal stopper,
and then lock with the lock nut.
2. Measure the clutch pedal stroke.
Standard value: 160 mm (6.29 in.) or more
If the clutch pedal stroke deviates from the standard value,
turn the push rod to adjust the stroke.
3. Return the clutch pedal gradually from its full-stroke
position to measure amount of the return made by the
pedal
u,ntil the interlock switch makes an operating sound.
Standard value: 10
- 15 mm (.394 - .591 in.)
If the amount of pedal return deviates from the standard
value, adjust it by loosening the lock nut and turning the
interlock switch.

CHECK VALVE OPERATION CHECK I
MZlFOAAWhen checking the check valve, keep the check valve fit in the
vacuum hose.
1. Remove the vacuum hose.
CautionL’The check valve is press-fit inside the vacuum hose and
do not remove the check valve from the vacuum hose.
5.Measure the clearance to the toe board (or pedal stopper)
when the clutch disengages. In the case of AWD vehicles,
measure with the engine running.
Clearance to toe board when clutch disengages:
Standard value: 55 mm (2.2 in.) or more
6.If the play and/or clearance is out of specification, bleed the
hydraulic system or check the master cylinder, release
cylinder or clutch proper.
CLUTCH BOOSTER OPERATING INSPECTION
MZlFCAAFor simple checking of clutch booster operation, carry out the
following tests.
(I) Run the engine for one or two minutes, and then stop it.
(2) Step on the clutch pedal several times. with normal
pressure.
If the pedal depressed fully the first time but gradually
becomes higher when depressed succeeding times the
dbooster is operating properly.
If the pedal height remains unchanged, the booster is
faulty.
(3) With the engine stopped, step on the clutch pedal several
times with the same foot pressure to make sure that the
pedal height will not change.
Then step on the clutch pedal and start the engine.
If the pedal moves downward slightly, the booster is in
good condition. If there is no change, the booster is faulty.
(4) With the engine running, step on the clutch pedal and then
stop the engine.
Hold the pedal depressed for 30 seconds. If the pedal
height does not change, the booster is in good condition.
If the pedal rises, the booster is faulty.
If the above three tests are okay, the booster performance can
be determined as good.
If one of the above three tests is not okay at last, the check
valve, vacuum hose, or booster will be faulty.
