NOTE:
. To check the clutch interlock switch and clutch
switch, see section 23.
. The clutch is self-adjusting to compensate for wear.
CAUTION: lf there is no clearance bstwa€n the mas-
ter cylinder piston and push rod, ths roloase bearingis held againsi the diaphragm spring, which canresuh in clutch slippage or other clutch probloms.
1. Loosen locknut A, and back off the clutch switch (or
sdjusting bolt) until it no longer touches the clutchpeoar.
2. Loosen locknut C, and turn the push rod in or out toget the specified stroke (@) and height (@) at theclutch oedal.

Measure the flywheel runout using a dial indicator
through at least two full turns. Push against the fly-
wheel each time you turn it to take up the crank-
shaft thrust washer clearance.
NOTE: The runout can be measured with engine

Turn the inner race ot the flywheel bearing with your
finger. The bearing should turn smoothly and qui-
etly. Check that the bearing outer race fits tightly in
the tlywheel. lf the race does not turn smoothly, qui-
