Tool for bleeding clutch hydraulics (Tool No. 21 5 030)
21 5 030 I
The clutch is hydraulically actuated by the master and slave
cylinders. With the self-adjusting clutch
(SAC), clutch disc
wear is automatically taken up through the self-adjusting
pressure plate springs, making pedal feel consistent through-
out the life of the clutch.
A soft or spongy feel to the clutch pedal, long pedal free-play,
or grinding noises
from the gears while shifting can all indi-
cate problems with the clutch hydraulics. In these circum-
stances it is best to
star? with a clutch fluid flush, followed, if
necessary, by replacement of the hydraulic parts.
NOTE-
The clutch hydraulic system shares the fluid reservoir and flu-
id with the brake hydraulic system.
Clutch hydraulic system,
bleeding and flushing
If the clutchlbralte fluid is murky or muddy, or has not been
changed within the last two years, flush the system and
change the fluid. Flushing the old fluid from the clutch lines is
done using a bralte system pressure bleeder.
- Remove brake fluid reservoir cap. Using a clean syringe, re-
move brake fluid from reservoir. Refill reservoir with clean
DOT

Clutch
Installing the non-SAC clutch (1 997 5281 model) requires the
use of only a flywheel lock and traditional clutch disc align-
ment tool.
Installing the self-adjusting clutch (SAC) requires several
special tools for aligning and assembling the clutch, as well as
locking the flywheel in place. In addition, the procedure for re-
installing a previously used SAC differs from the procedure
for installing
a new SAC. Be sure to read the SAC installation
procedure through before starting the job.
The pressure plate of the SAC uses a spring-loaded wedge
rino to cornoensate for clutch disc wear. The wedge ring
ad-
;u$s by means of spr'ng tenson, so specal toolsh~st be
used to
appy and relieve spring tension as the c utch pres-
sure plate is installed.
