Manual Transmission Fluid
% [SV30925(M )03/95]

deteriorate under normal driving conditions.
However, it is suggested that you have the fluid
level checked occasionally. If fluid is required,
seeLubricant Specificationsin the Index.

The Clutch
[SV30975(M )12/94]
The clutch on your vehicle is operated by a
cable that adjusts itself with a little help from
you. Complete the following steps every
5,000-6,000 miles (10,000 km) to adjust the
clutch.
[SV31001(M )01/89]
1. Turn your engine off and put your gearshift
in First.
[SV31025(M )10/89]
2. Put your foot under the clutch pedal and
gently pull it up until the pedal stops.
[SV31050(M )01/89]
3. Then push the clutch down slowly. You will
hear a click if your clutch needed adjusting
and adjusted itself.

Brake Fluid
*
[SV32000( ALL)04/95]
Under normal circumstances, your vehicle
should not use up brake fluid rapidly. However,
expect the level of the brake fluid to slowly fall
as you put more mileage on your vehicle and
the brake lining wears.
[SV32300(M )03/95]
Check the brake fluid at each scheduled engine
oil change or at least once a year. You can do
this by looking at the fluid level in the plastic
reservoir on the master cylinder. Also, see label
on reservoir cap. (To locate the master cylinder,
seeThe Engine Typesin the Index.) The fluid
level should be between the MIN and MAX
marks.
