DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Manual Transmission and Clutch
Inspection and Verification
It is important to get an accurate description of the concern before any diagnosis can be carried out.
Ask questions as to whether it occurs when hot or cold, during shifting, driving at a particular speed or
in a particular gear. If possible, have the customer demonstrate the concern.
zWith the vehicle at a complete stop, shift through all the gears and evaluate the noise at
different engine rpm. Check for any noises in NEUTRAL at different engine rpm.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Disc and Pressure Plate —
3.8L and 4.6L (2V) Engines
1. Remove the transmission. For additional information, refer to Section 308 - 03A (T5OD) or
Section 308 - 03B (TR3650).
2. CAUTION: Loosen the bolts evenly to prevent clutch pressure plate damage.
NOTE: If the parts are to be reused, mark the clutch pressure plate and the flywheel.
Remove the bolts and remove the clutch pressure plate and the clutch disc.
Installation
NOTE: Clean the clutch pressure plate and flywheel with a commercial alcohol- based solvent so
surfaces are free from oil film.
Do not use cleaners with a petroleum base. Do not immerse the clutch pressure plate in the solvent.
1. Position the clutch disc on the flywheel. zUsing the special tool, align the clutch disc.

The clutch control system engages and disengages the clutch. The clutch control system disengages
the clutch when the clutch pedal is depressed and engages the clutch when the clutch pedal is
released. Clutch pedal motion is transmitted by the clutch release lever cable to the clutch release
lever. The clutch release hub and bearing engages the clutch pressure plate diaphragm spring,
releasing the pressure on the clutch disc which in turn disengages the transmission from the engine.
The clutch adjusts automatically to compensate for clutch disc wear. The clutch linkage is self-
adjusting.
The clutch pedal position (CPP) switch prevents the starter motor from engaging unless the clutch
pedal is depressed all the way to the floor. The switch plunger is contacted by the clutch pedal and
extends as the clutch pedal is pressed. The clutch pedal position switch is electrically connected in line
with the ignition switch and the starter motor relay coil. The CPP also turns off the speed control when
the clutch pedal is depressed. 4 7L583 Clutch pedal quadrant and pawl assembly Klj . 2 ba

13. Remove the self-
adjusting mechanism.
14. Remove the self- adjusting mechanism shaft bushings.
Installation 1. NOTE: Before the installation of the clutch pedal shaft or clutch pedal, remove and inspect the
brake and clutch pedal bushings. Clean and lubricate with a light film of engine oil meeting Ford
specification WSS- M2C153-G and replace the brake and clutch pedal bushing if excessive wear
is evident.
To install, reverse the removal procedure. Klj . 4 ba

WARNING: Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco or open flame of any type when
working on or near any fuel- related components. Highly flammable mixtures are always present
and may be ignited, resulting in possible personal injury.
WARNING: Fuel in the fuel system remains under high pressure even when the engine is
not running. Before servicing or disconnecting any of the fuel lines or fuel system components,
the fuel system pressure must be relieved to prevent accidental spraying of fuel, causing
personal injury or a fire hazard.
1. Relieve the fuel system pressure. For additional information, refer to Pressure Relief in this
section.
2. Remove the fuel tube clip.
