Pull the tape measure up to the steering wheel. Position it
through the steering wheel opening.
z Depress the clutch fully and start the vehicle.
z Shift the transmission into reverse gear, then move the shift
lever forward to the position in between reverse gear and
neutral. Slowly release the clutch pedal (if the vehicle creeps
rearward, move the shift lever forward a little more). The
transmission will behave as if in neutral, but the reverse gear
synchronizer will be bypassed.
z With the clutch pedal up, gently pull the shift lever toward the
reverse gear position. Gear clash can now be heard.
z Slowly depress the clutch pedal. Using the steering wheel
inner seam as a reference, note the measurement when the
gear clash stops or the shift lever slides into reverse gear.

GENERAL PROCEDURES
Heater Hose Coupling
Disconnect
CAUTION: Do not attempt to install a new bushing, spacer or O- rings in the heater hose
coupling; damage to the heater hose coupling can result. If the heater hose coupling is the
cause of a coolant leak, the affected heater hose must be replaced as an assembly.
1. WARNING: The engine must be off, fully cool and the cooling system fully
depressurized before attempting to disconnect any heater water hoses. Failure to comply
with this warning can result in serious injury or burns from hot liquid escaping out of the
engine cooling system.
Depressurize the engine cooling system.
2. Push the heater hose toward the tube to fully expose the locking tabs.
3. NOTE: When compressing the white coupling retainer with the special tool, the special tool
must be perpendicular to and on the highest point of the coupling.
NOTE: If the heater hose coupling is accessible, the retainer tabs can be compressed by hand
to disconnect the heater hose.
Push the special tool over the coupling retainer windows to compress the retainer locking tabs.

z
A one- piece lip- type seal (installed from the front of the A/C compressor) is used to seal it at the
shaft opening in the assembly.
z Five double- acting pistons operate within the cylinder assembly. The pistons are actuated by a
swashplate that converts the rotating action of the shaft to a reciprocating force.
z Reed- type discharge valves are located between the cylinder assembly and the head at each
end of the A/C compressor.
z The A/C compressor uses PAG oil, or equivalent. This oil contains special additives required for
the A/C compressor.
z The A/C compressor oil from vehicles equipped with an FS- 10 A/C compressor may have some
dark colored streaking while maintaining a normal oil viscosity. This is normal for the A/C
compressor and is caused by break- in wear of the piston rings.
The magnetic A/C clutch has the following characteristics: zIt drives the compressor shaft.
z When the battery positive voltage (B+) is applied to the A/C clutch field coil, the clutch plate and
hub assembly is drawn toward the A/C clutch pulley.
z The magnetic force locks the clutch plate and hub assembly and the A/C clutch pulley together
as one unit, causing the compressor shaft to rotate.
z When (B+) is removed from the A/C clutch field coil, springs in the clutch plate and hub
assembly move the clutch plate away from the A/C clutch pulley. A/C Compressor Pressure Relief Valve Item Part Number Description
