2. Engine Noise
Type of sound Condition Possible cause
Regular clicking soundSound increases as engine
speed increases.Valve mechanism is defective.
Incorrect valve clearance
Worn valve rocker
Worn camshaft
Broken valve spring
Heavy and dull clankOil pressure is low.Worn crankshaft main bearing
Worn connecting rod bearing (big end)
Oil pressure is normal.Loose flywheel mounting bolts
Damaged engine mounting
High-pitched clank
(Spark knock)Sound is noticeable when
accelerating with an overload.Ignition timing advanced
Accumulation of carbon inside combustion chamber
Wrong spark plug
Improper gasoline
Clank when engine speed is
medium (1,000 to 2,000 rpm).Sound is reduced when fuel
injector connector of noisy
cylinder is disconnected.
(NOTE*)Worn crankshaft main bearing
Worn bearing at crankshaft end of connecting rod
Knocking sound when engine
is operating under idling speed
and engine is warm.Sound is reduced when fuel
injector connector of noisy
cylinder is disconnected.
(NOTE*)Worn cylinder liner and piston ring
Broken or stuck piston ring
Worn piston pin and hole at piston end of connecting rod
Sound is not reduced if each
fuel injector connector is
disconnected in turn. (NOTE*)Worn camshaft journal bore in crankcase
Squeaky sound—Insufficient generator lubrication
Rubbing sound—Defective generator brush and rotor contact
Gear scream when starting
engine—Defective ignition starter switch
Worn gear and starter pinion
Sound like polishing glass with
a dry cloth—Loose drive belt
Defective engine coolant pump shaft
Hissing sound—Loss of compression
Air leakage in air intake system, hoses, connections or
manifolds
Timing belt noise—Loose timing belt
Belt contacting case/adjacent part
Valve tappet noise—Incorrect valve clearance
NOTE*:
When disconnecting fuel injector connector, Malfunction Indicator Light (CHECK ENGINE light) illuminates and trouble code is stored in
ECM memory.
Therefore, carry out the CLEAR MEMORY MODE and INSPECTION MODE after connecting fuel injector connector. (Ref. to 2-7 On-Board

B: INSPECTION
1. RELEASE BEARING
CAUTION:
Since this bearing is grease sealed and is of a nonlu-
brication type, do not wash with gasoline or any sol-
vent when servicing the clutch.
1) Check the bearing for smooth movement by applying
force in the radial direction.
Radial direction stroke:
FWD; Approx.
1.0 mm (0.039 in)
AWD; Approx.
1.4 mm (0.055 in)
G2M0240
2) Check the bearing for smooth rotation by applying pres-
sure in the thrust direction.
3) Check wear and damage of bearing case surface con-
tacting with lever.
G2M0241
2. RELEASE LEVER
Check lever pivot portion and the point of contact with
release bearing case for wear.
C: INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
Before or during assembling, lubricate the following
points with a light coat of grease.
Inner groove of release bearing
Contact surface of lever and pivot
Contact surface of lever and bearing
Transmission main shaft spline (Use grease contain-
ing molybdenum disulphide.)

3. FLYWHEEL
CAUTION:
Since this bearing is grease sealed and is of a nonlu-
brication type, do not wash with gasoline or any sol-
vent.
1) Damage of facing and ring gear
If defective, replace flywheel.
G2M0251
2) Smoothness of rotation
Rotate ball bearing applying pressure in thrust direction.
If noise or excessive play is noted, replace ball bearing as
follows:
(1) Drive out ball bearing from flywheel.
(2) Press bearing into flywheel until bearing end sur-
face is flush with clutch disc contact surface of flywheel.
Do not press inner race.

C: INSTALLATION
1) Install flywheel.
2) Install ST, and tighten the flywheel attaching bolts to the
specified torque.
ST 498497100 CRANKSHAFT STOPPER
Tightening torque:
72±3 N⋅m (7.3±0.3 kg-m, 52.8±2.2 ft-lb)
NOTE:
Tighten flywheel installing bolts gradually. Each bolt should
be tightened to the specified torque in a crisscross fashion.

3) Insert ST into the clutch disc and install them on the
flywheel by inserting the ST end into the pilot bearing.
