ADJUSTMENTS

Pedal Height

1. Check the pedal height from the upper surface of the floor panel. Standard is between 6.10–6.50 inch (155–165mm). Pushrod play at pedal height is 0.04–0.20 inch (1.0–5.0mm).

2. If out of specification, loosen the locknut and turn the stopper bolt until the height is correct. Tighten the locknut.
3. Loosen the locknut and turn the pushrod until the pushrod play is correct. Tighten the locknut.

Free-Play

1. Push in the pedal until the beginning of the clutch resistance is felt. Pedal free-play is 0.20–0.59 inch (5.0–15.0mm).

3. Tighten the locknut.
4. After adjusting the pedal free play. Check the pedal height.

Release Point

1. Pull the parking brake lever and install a wheel stopper.
2. Start the engine and allow to idle.
3. Without depressing the clutch pedal, slowly shift the shift lever from reverse position until the gears contact.
4. Gradually depress the clutch pedal and measure the stroke distance from the point the gear noise stops (release point) up to the full stroke end position. Standard distance is 0.98 inch (25mm) or more.

   NOTE: From the pedal stroke end position to the release point.

5. If the distance is not as specified, perform the following:
   • Inspect the pedal height
   • Inspect the pushrod play and pedal free-play
   • Bleed the clutch line
   • Inspect the clutch cover and disc
