inspect the clearance between the clutch end-plate
andthetopdisc.
8. If any plate is worn, damaged, or discolored, replace the damaged plate with a new plate, and
inspect the other wave-plates for a phase
difference. If the clutch plate is replaced, inspect
the clearance between the clutch end-plate and the
top disc.
9. If the clutch end-plate is worn, damaged, or discolored, inspect the clearance between the
