CLEARANCE BETWEEN BOOSTER PISTON ROD AND
MASTER CYLINDER PISTON
The length of booster piston rod (1) is adjusted to provide speci-
fied clearance “a” between piston rod end and master cylinder
piston (2).
Before measuring clearance, push piston rod several times
so as to make sure reaction disc is in place.
Keep inside of booster at atmospheric pressure for measure-
ment.
Remove piston (push) rod seal from booster, if equipped.
1) Set special tool (E) on master cylinder (1) and push pin (3)
until contacts piston (2).
Special tool
(E): 09950-96010
2) Turn special tool upside down and place it on booster (1).
Adjust booster piston rod (2) length until rod end contacts pin
head (3).
Special tool
(E): 09950-96010
Clearance “b” (between special tool and piston rod)
0 mm (0 in.)
3) Adjust clearance by turning adjusting screw of piston rod.
Special tool
(F) : 09952-16010
NOTE:
Take measurement with booster set vertically or piston
