INSPECTION
The Height of Clutch Pedal
1. Turn the floor carpet.
2. Check that the clutch pedal height (H
1) from the dash lower
panel (1) is within the reference value.
3. Replace clutch pedal if the height is outside the reference value.
Clutch Pedal Height When Disengaging The Clutch
1. Securely engage the parking brake.
2. Turn the floor carpet.

2) from the dash lower panel (1) is within the ref-
erence value with a scale immediately before the clutch is
engaged.
NOTE:
Although the clutch pedal height differs according to whether the
clutch gets disengaged or engaged, clutch-engaged case is
regarded as clutch-disengaged case for easier inspection.
6. Replace clutch pedal if the height is outside the reference value.
Clutch Pedal Play
1. Push the pedal pad by hand until a resistance can be felt and check that the play (A) on the upper surface of the pedal pad is
within the reference value.
