PARKING BRAKE
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The parking brake system is operated by a foot
operated parking brake lever. The parking brake
lever is mounted on the body of the vehicle to the left
of the brake pedal (Fig. 94). It is a automatic-adjust-
ing type lever. The vehicle has four flexible steel parking brake
cables. They are: ² Front
² Intermediate
² Left rear
² Right rear
The front parking brake cable extends from the
parking brake lever. A steel equalizer bracket con-
nects the front parking brake cable to the left rear
and intermediate cable. The intermediate cable is
connected to the right rear cable using a parking
brake cable connector. On vehicles equipped with rear drum brakes, the
rear service brakes also act as the vehicle's parking
brakes. Vehicles equipped with rear disc brakes use a
small duo-servo brake assembly mounted to the each
rear disc brake caliper adapter as the parking brake.
The inside of the brake rotor (hat section of drum-in-
hat style brake rotor) is used as the parking brake
drum.
DESCRIPTION - EXPORT
The parking brake system on this vehicle features
a hand-operated parking brake lever. The lever is
located between the two front seats and requires a
special front cable.
OPERATION
The automatic-adjusting feature in the foot oper-
ated parking brake lever continuously applies mini-
mal tension to the parking brake cables when the
parking brake lever is in the released position to
keep them in adjustment at all times. Due to this
feature, the parking brake cables require no periodic
adjustment. When the parking brake lever is applied, the
cables are pulled, thus applying the brake shoes
(rear drum brakes) or parking brake shoes (rear disc
brakes) at each rear wheel. The brake shoes are mechanically operated by an
internal lever and strut connected to the rear park-
ing brake cables. An equalizer bracket is used at the rear end of the
front parking brake cable to distribute tension
equally to each parking brake cable.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DRIVE PLATE
MISALIGNMENT
Common causes of misalignment are:
²Heat warping
²Mounting drive plate on a dirty crankshaft
flange
²Incorrect bolt tightening
²Improper seating on the crankshaft shoulder
²Loose crankshaft bolts
Clean the crankshaft flange before mounting the
drive plate. Dirt and grease on the flange surface
may misalign the flywheel, causing excessive runout.
Use new bolts when mounting drive plate to crank-
shaft. Tighten drive plate bolts to specified torque
only. Over-tightening can distort the drive plate hub
causing excessive runout.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CLUTCH COVER
AND DISC RUNOUT
Check condition of the clutch cover before installa-
tion. A warped cover or diaphragm spring will cause
grab and/or incomplete release or engagement. Use
care when handling the clutch assembly. Impact can
distort the cover, diaphragm spring, and release fin-
gers.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CLUTCH CHATTER
COMPLAINTS
For all clutch chatter complaints, perform the fol-
lowing:
(1) Check for loose, misaligned, or broken engine
and transmission mounts. If present, they should be
corrected at this time. Test vehicle for chatter. If
chatter is gone, there is no need to go any further.
(2) If chatter persists, check hydraulic clutch
release system is functioning properly.
(3) Check for loose connections in drivetrain. Cor-
rect any problems and determine if clutch chatter
complaints have been satisfied. If not:
(a) Remove transaxle.
(b) Check to see if the release bearing is sticky
or binding. Replace bearing, if needed.
(c) Check linkage for excessive wear on the pivot
stud and fork fingers. Replace all worn parts.
(d) Check clutch assembly for contamination
(dirt, oil). Replace clutch assembly, if required.
(e) Check to see if the clutch disc hub splines
are damaged. Replace with new clutch assembly, if
necessary.
(f) Check input shaft splines for damage.
Replace, if necessary.
(g) Check for uneven wear on clutch fingers.
(h) Check for broken clutch cover diaphragm
spring fingers. Replace with new clutch assembly,
if necessary.
