Master Cylinder Push Rod
NOTE:
Check and adjust master cylinder push rod-to-piston clearance before installing master cylinder.
- Install Push Rod Adjustment Gauge (07JAG-SD40100). Ensure adjusting bolt is flush with end of master cylinder. See Fig 1 . Ensure gasket is in position when adjusting rod clearance.
- Remove push rod adjustment gauge from master cylinder, and install it on brake booster. Tighten mounting nuts to 11 ft. lbs. (15 N.m). Using engine or outside vacuum source, apply at least 20 in. Hg vacuum to brake booster.
- Using a feeler gauge, ensure clearance is 0-.016" (0-.41 mm) on Integra or 0-.008" (0-.20 mm) on Legend or Vigor. See Fig 2 . If clearance is incorrect, loosen star lock nut and turn adjuster in or out to adjust clearance. Hold clevis while adjusting.
