Transfer Clutch: Inspection
- Inspect the drive plate facing for wear and damage.
- Driven plate for discoloration (burned color)
- Make sure the snap ring is not worn and the return spring has no permanent distortion, damage, or deformation.
- Check the lip seal for damage.
- Inspect the extension end play, and adjust it to within the standard value. Refer to ADJUSTMENT .
- Before measuring clearance "A" between snap ring and driven plate, place same thickness shims on both sides to prevent the plate from tilting.
- When clearance "A" exceeds the limit for use, replace the drive plate and driven plate as a set, and select the pressure plate within the initial specified value.
Initial standard:
0.7 - 1.1 mm (0.028 - 0.043 in)
Limit thickness:
1.45 mm (0.057 in)
- Check for tight corner braking phenomenon when the vehicle is moved forward with the steering fully turned. If tight corner braking occurs, perform the following procedures.
- With the steering wheel held at fully turned position, drive the vehicle in "D" range and with vehicle speed at approx. 5 km/h (3 MPH) in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions for approx. ten times each, while repeating acceleration and braking intermittently.
- If the tight corner braking phenomenon still persists, drive the vehicle again in a circle for several laps.
