FRONT WHEEL MEASUREMENTS1. Place the front wheels on the brake tester.
2. Perform the brake test.
CautionThe rear wheels should remain on the ground.
3.If the brake dragging force exceeds the specified value, jack
up the vehicle and manually rotate each wheel to check the
rotation condition of each wheel.
NOTEIf the brake dragging force exceeds the specified value, the
cause may be the effect of the viscous coupling’s dragging
force, so jack up the front wheels and check the rotation
condition of the wheels in this state for no effect by the
viscous coupling’s dragging force.
REAR WHEEL MEASUREMENTSAfter placing the rear wheels on the brake tester, follow the
same procedures as for the front wheel measurements.
WHEEL BALANCE
FRONT WHEEL MEASUREMENTS‘d
1. Jack up the rear wheels, and place an axle stand at the
designated part of the side sill.
2. Jack up the front wheels and set a pick-up stand and
balancing machine in place.
Caution
1.Set so that the front and rear of the vehicle are at
the same height.
2. Release the parking brake.
3. Rotate each wheel manually and check to be sure
that there is no dragging.
3. Use the engine to drive the tires, and then make the
measurements.
Caution
1.If an error is indicated in the state of engine drive,
motor drive can be used concurrently.
2. Do not operate the clutch suddenly, or increase or
reduce speed suddenly during the work.
REAR WHEEL MEASUREMENTS1. Jack up the front wheels, and place an axle stand at the
designated part of the side sill.
2. Jack up the rear wheels, and then, after setting a pick-up
stand and balancing machine in place; follow the same
procedure as for front wheel measurements.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
CLUTCH PEDAL INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTMZlFAAP
1.Measure the clutch pedal height (from the face of the pedal
pad to the firewall).
Standard value: 177
- 182 mm (6.97 - 7.17 in.)
If the clutch pedal height is not within the standard value
range, adjust as follows:
For vehicles without auto-cruise control system, turn and
adjust the bolt so that the pedal height is the standard
value, and then secure by tightening the lock nut to the
specified torque.
Vehicles with auto-cruise control system, disconnect the
clutch switch connector and turn the switch for standard
clutch pedal height. Tighten the lock nut to the specified
torque.
Specified torque: 13 Nm (9
ft.lbs.)
NOTEWhen the pedal height is lower than the standard value,
loosen the bolt or clutch switch, and then turn the push rod
to make the adjustment. After making the adjustment,
tighten the bolt or clutch switch to reach the pedal stopper,
and then lock with the lock nut.
2. Measure the clutch pedal stroke.
Standard value: 160 mm (6.29 in.) or more
If the clutch pedal stroke deviates from the standard value,
turn the push rod to adjust the stroke.
3. Return the clutch pedal gradually from its full-stroke
position to measure amount of the return made by the
pedal
u,ntil the interlock switch makes an operating sound.
Standard value: 10
- 15 mm (.394 - .591 in.)
If the amount of pedal return deviates from the standard
value, adjust it by loosening the lock nut and turning the
interlock switch.

CHECK VALVE OPERATION CHECK I
MZlFOAAWhen checking the check valve, keep the check valve fit in the
vacuum hose.
1. Remove the vacuum hose.
CautionL’The check valve is press-fit inside the vacuum hose and
do not remove the check valve from the vacuum hose.
5.Measure the clearance to the toe board (or pedal stopper)
when the clutch disengages. In the case of AWD vehicles,
measure with the engine running.
Clearance to toe board when clutch disengages:
Standard value: 55 mm (2.2 in.) or more
6.If the play and/or clearance is out of specification, bleed the
hydraulic system or check the master cylinder, release
cylinder or clutch proper.
CLUTCH BOOSTER OPERATING INSPECTION
MZlFCAAFor simple checking of clutch booster operation, carry out the
following tests.
(I) Run the engine for one or two minutes, and then stop it.
(2) Step on the clutch pedal several times. with normal
pressure.
If the pedal depressed fully the first time but gradually
becomes higher when depressed succeeding times the
dbooster is operating properly.
If the pedal height remains unchanged, the booster is
faulty.
(3) With the engine stopped, step on the clutch pedal several
times with the same foot pressure to make sure that the
pedal height will not change.
Then step on the clutch pedal and start the engine.
If the pedal moves downward slightly, the booster is in
good condition. If there is no change, the booster is faulty.
(4) With the engine running, step on the clutch pedal and then
stop the engine.
Hold the pedal depressed for 30 seconds. If the pedal
height does not change, the booster is in good condition.
If the pedal rises, the booster is faulty.
If the above three tests are okay, the booster performance can
be determined as good.
If one of the above three tests is not okay at last, the check
valve, vacuum hose, or booster will be faulty.

If it does not slide smoothly, check after cleaning and
reassembling. If the play is excessive, replace the clutch
disc and/or the input shaft.
CLUTCH RELEASE BEARING
Caution
1.The release bearing is packed with grease, so don’t usecleaning oil, etc. to clean it.
2.Do not disassemble the bearing and sleeve of the clutch
release bearing. If disassembled, replace. (AWD only)l Check for bearing heat damage, other damage, abnormal
noise and/or improper rotation. Also check whether or not
there is wear at the point of contact with the diaphragm

lIf there is abnormal wear at the point of contact with the
release fork, replace the bearing.
RELEASE FORKIf there is abnormal wear at the point of contact with the
