3) Tighten lock nut, and ensure brake pedal height is within
specification. Start engine to evacuate brake booster chamber. Stop
engine, and apply brake several times to remove vacuum from brake
booster.
4) Using hand pressure, depress brake pedal to measure free
play before resistance is felt. Free play distance for all models is
0.10-0.31" (3-8 mm). If distance is not within specification, it is
probably caused by excessive play between the brake pedal arm and the
clevis pin. Check and replace as necessary.
5) Start engine and apply 110 lbs. (490 N) of pressure to
brake pedal. With the carpet pulled back, measure the distance between
the brake pedal and the floorboard. If the distance is not 3.1-3.5"
(80-90 mm) check for air in brake hydraulic system, brake adjustment
or defective parking brake component or adjustment. Adjust or repair
as necessary.
LOAD-SENSING PROPORTIONING VALVE (LSPV)
Montero
1) Park vehicle on level surface. Remove excess weight from
vehicle. Make sure the lever is all the way towards the valve side.
Measure length of entire spring. See Fig. 1.
If spring length is not within specification, adjust spring
support until correct length is obtained. See LSPV SPRING LENGTH
table.

times then switch the engine off.
2) Remove the master cylinder from the brake booster making
sure the push rod is not disturbed and the brake pedal is not
depressed after master cylinder removal.
3) Using a Vernier Caliper and Block Gauge, measure the
thickness of the block gauge and add .366" (9.3 mm) to the gauge
thickness and set the caliper to this dimension. See Fig. 4.

4) Check the push rod position with vernier caliper set to
the calculated dimension. Specification range .362"-.370" (9.2-9.4
mm). See Fig. 5.

(62-73 kPa) of vacuum applied to the brake booster.
PARKING/EMERGENCY BRAKE
NOTE: Adjust service brakes before adjusting parking brake.
Start engine, and apply brake pedal. Pull parking brake lever
with a force of 44-45 lbs. (196-200 N). Parking brake lever should
move up 3-5 notches on Diamante, Stealth and 3000GT, 4-6 notches on
Montero, and 5-7 notches on all other models. If adjustment is
necessary, turn adjusting nut located under console or at end of cable
rod. See Fig. 6.

REAR BRAKE SHOES
Fully release parking brake and depress brake pedal several
times to center shoes and adjust brake shoe clearance. Adjust shoes so
brake shoes lightly contact brake drum. Adjust parking brake, and
check pedal travel. Rotate brake drum to verify free movement.
STOPLIGHT SWITCH
Loosen lock nut, and adjust switch-to-pedal arm clearance to
0.02-0.04" (0.5-1.0 mm). Tighten lock nut. DO NOT depress master
cylinder push rod during stoplight switch adjustment.
TESTING
Page 225 of 1501
POWER BRAKE BOOSTER
System Check
1) Run engine for 1-2 minutes. Shut engine off, and depress
brake pedal several times with normal pressure. If pedal height
gradually becomes higher with successive applications, power brake
booster is okay. If pedal height remains steady, power brake booster
is not operating properly, go to next step.
2) With engine stopped, depress brake pedal repeatedly until
pedal height no longer falls. Hold brake pedal down, and start engine.
If pedal moves downward slightly, power brake booster is okay. If
pedal height does not change, power brake booster is not operating
properly, go to next step.
3) With engine running, press and hold brake pedal. Shut off
engine. Hold brake pedal for 30 seconds. Brake pedal height should not
change. If pedal rises, power brake booster is not operating properly,
go to next step.
4) If brake booster operation is not as specified in each
step, disconnect vacuum hose at brake booster and check for sufficient
vacuum with engine running. Also check brake booster check valve
operation. Repair or replace as necessary.
Check Valve Inspection
Remove vacuum hose from power brake booster. Do not remove
check valve from hose. Check valve should hold vacuum in one direction
and allow air to pass in other direction.
LOAD-SENSING PROPORTIONING VALVE (LSPV)
Montero
1) Before diagnosing Load-Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSPV)\
,
ensure all other brake components are operating properly. When all
other brake system components are determined to be okay, ensure LSPV
spring length is within specification. See Fig. 1. See LOAD-SENSING
PROPORTIONING VALVE (LSPV) under ADJUSTMENTS.
2) After spring length is determined to be within
specification, connect pressure gauges to input and output ports of
LSPV. See Fig. 7. Bleed brake system. See BLEEDING BRAKE SYSTEM.

3) With vehicle unloaded at correct ride height and LSPV
spring correctly adjusted to 8.9" (227 mm), slowly depress brake pedal\

specified, bleed system and inspect hydraulic and clutch components.
See CLUTCH PEDAL SPECIFICATIONS table.
CLUTCH PEDAL INTERLOCK SWITCH
1) Place transmission in Neutral and apply parking brake.
Turn ignition switch to START position with clutch pedal not
depressed. Engine should not crank. If engine cranks, adjust or
replace interlock switch.
2) Disconnect interlock switch connector. Interlock switch
connector is located at clutch pedal. Depress and release interlock
switch. Using ohmmeter, check continuity between interlock switch
terminals. If continuity exists with interlock switch depressed and
does not exist with switch released, switch is okay. Adjust or replace
as necessary.
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
Removal (2WD Models)
1) Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove shift knob, dust
cover retaining plate, gaskets, stopper plate and control lever
assembly. Raise and support vehicle.
2) Remove front exhaust pipe. Drain transmission fluid. Index
mark drive shaft flange and remove drive shaft.
3) Disconnect back-up light switch connector, speedometer
cable connection and exhaust pipe mounting bracket. Remove lower
bellhousing cover. Disconnect clutch cable from clutch lever.
4) Support transmission with jack. Remove rear engine mount
nuts and bolts from transmission. Remove crossmember with rear engine
mount. Remove remaining bellhousing bolts, move transmission toward
rear and lower from vehicle.
5) If reusing pressure plate, index mark pressure plate to
flywheel for installation reference. Install a clutch alignment tool
to prevent pressure plate and clutch disc from dropping. Loosen
pressure plate bolts gradually in a crisscross pattern to avoid
warping pressure plate flange during removal. Remove pressure plate
and clutch disc. See Fig. 3.
Inspection
1) Check release bearing and release fork for damage or wear.
DO NOT clean release bearing assembly in solvent.
2) Inspect pressure plate surface for wear, cracks, and/or
discoloration. Measure diaphragm spring ends for wear and uneven
height. Replace assembly if height difference between fingers exceeds
.02" (.5 mm).
3) Check facing of clutch disc for loose rivets, uneven
contact, deterioration, seizure or oil saturation. Measure distance
from clutch disc surface to head of rivet. Replace clutch disc if
distance is less than .012" (.30 mm). Replace worn or defective
components as necessary. See Fig. 4.
CAUTION: Install clutch disc with manufacturer's stamp mark (located
near hub of clutch disc) toward pressure plate.
Installation
1) Using a clutch alignment tool, install pressure plate and
clutch disc. If reusing pressure plate, ensure index marks are
aligned. Tighten bolts evenly in a crisscross pattern to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . See Fig. 3.
2) Clean release bearing sliding surface. DO NOT clean
