Disassembly
Disassemble component parts using special tool and
hammer.
Special tool
(A): 09922–85811
Assembly
Replace or correct parts as required and assemble
shafts making sure that component parts are in proper
order as shown.
NOTE
• Distinguish reverse gear shift arm spring (Blue) (2) from low speed locating spring
(Yellow).
• Install 2 steel balls (3) in reverse gear shift arm (1) without fail.
• Drive in spring pin for reverse gear shift arm facing slit A toward 5th gear side.

Gear Shift Shaft and Fork InspectionS7RS0B5206024
Using feeler gauge, check clearance between fork (1)
and sleeve (2) and replace those parts if it exceeds limit.
NOTE
For correct judgement of parts replacement,
carefully inspect contact portion of fork and
sleeve.

Clearance “a” between fork and sleeve
Service limit “a”: 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
Insert each gear shift shaft into case and check that it
moves smoothly. If it doesn’t, correct using oilstone,
reamer or the like.

Clutch Pedal InspectionS7RS0B5306001
Cylinder Push Rod Play “A”1) Press clutch pedal (1) gradually with finger, stop when slight increase of resistance is felt and
measure how much pedal has moved (push rod
play) as represented by “A” as shown.

Clutch Release Margin “C”1) Pull up parking brake fully and block wheels.
2) Start engine and keep engine at idle with neutral gear position.
3) Without clutch pedal (1) dep ressed, slightly push the
shift lever to re verse position until transaxle emits
gear contact noise. Do not shift the lever to reverse
position.
4) With emitting gear contact noise, be slow to depress clutch pedal (1), and at gear contact noise died
position (release point) stop depressing.
5) Measure distance between release point (4) and full stroke point (5) on clutch pedal (1) which is shown by
“C” in figure.
Clutch release margin
“C”: 25 – 55 mm (0.98 – 2.17 in.)
6) If “C” is not within specificat ion, it is possible that air
is trapped in this system. If suspected so, bleed air
referring to “Air Bleeding of Clutch System”. Upon
completion of above inspection, start engine and
check clutch for proper operation.
Clutch Fluid Level InspectionS7RS0B5306002
Refer to “Brake Fluid Level Inspection in Section 4A”.
Clutch fluid specification
: Refer to reservoir cap.
Air Bleeding of Clutch SystemS7RS0B5306003
CAUTION!
Brake fluid is extremely damaging to paint. If
fluid should accidentally touch painted
surface, immediately wipe fluid from paint
and clean painted surface.

Bleeding operation is necessary to remove air whenever
it entered hydraulic clutch system.
1) Fill master cylinder reservoir with brake fluid and keep at least one-half full of fluid during bleeding
operation.
Brake Fluid
Refer to reservoir cap
2) Remove bleeder plug cap from clutch operating cylinder (3). Attach a vinyl tube (1) to bleeder plug
(4), and insert the other end into container (2).

Steering Wheel Removal and InstallationS7RS0B6206002
CAUTION!
Do not turn the contact coil more than
allowable number of turns (about two and a
half turns from the center position clockwise
or counterclockwise respectively) with
steering wheel removed, or coil will break.

Removal
CAUTION!
Do not hammer the end of the shaft.
Hammering it will loosen the plastic shear
pins which maintain the column length and
impair the collapsible design of the column.

1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Disable air bag system referring to “Disabling Air
Bag System in Section 8B”.
3) Remove driver air bag (inflator) module from steering wheel. Refer to “Driver Air Bag (Inflator)
Module Removal and Installation in Section 8B”.
4) Disconnect horn connector and audio control switch connector, if equipped.
5) Remove steering shaft nut and then make alignment marks (1) on steering wheel and shaft for a guide
during reinstallation.
6) Remove steering wheel using special tool. Special tool
(A): 09944–36011 Installation
CAUTION!
Following 2 Steps (Step 1) and 2)) are
prerequisite for installation of steering wheel.
If steering wheel has
been installed without
these 2 Steps, contact coil will break when
steering wheel is turned.

1) Check that vehicle’s front tires are at straight-ahead position and contact coil is centered. If contact coil is
turned after removing steering wheel, center contact
coil referring to “Centering Contact Coil Cable
Assembly”.
2) Install steering wheel to steering shaft with 2 grooves (1) on contact coil fitted in 2 lugs (2) in the back of
steering wheel and also aligning marks (3) on
steering wheel and steering shaft.
3) Tighten steering shaft nut (4) to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Steering shaft nut (a): 33 N·m (3.3 kgf-m, 24.0 lb-
ft)
4) Connect horn connector and audio control switch connector, if necessary.
5) Install driver air bag (inflator) module to steering wheel. Refer to “Driver Air Bag (Inflator) Module
Removal and Installati on in Section 8B”.
