Removal and Installation
Inspection
Check brake pedal for following items.
+Brake pedal bend
+ Clevis pin deformation
+ Crack of any welded portion
+ Crack or deformation of clevis pin stopper
Adjustment
Check brake pedal free height from dash lower panel.
H: Free height Refer to SDS (BR-72).
D: Depressed height Refer to SDS (BR-72).
Under force of 490 N (50 kg, 110 lb)
with engine running
C
1,C2: Clearance between pedal stopper and threaded end of stop lamp switch and ASCD
switch 0.3 - 1.0 mm (0.012 - 0.039 in)
A: Pedal free play 1-3mm(0.04 - 0.12 in)
If necessary, adjust brake pedal free height.

BRAKE PEDAL AND BRACKET
BR-10

1. Loosen lock nut and adjust pedal free height by turning brakebooster input rod. Then tighten lock nut.
Make sure that tip of input rod stays inside.
2. Adjust clearance ``C
1'' and ``C2'' with stop lamp switch and
ASCD switch respectively. Then tighten lock nuts.
3. Check pedal free play.
Make sure that stop lamp is off when pedal is released.
4. Check brake pedal's depressed height while engine is running. If depressed height is below speci®ed value, check brake sys-
tem for leaks, accumulation of air or any damage to compo-
nents (master cylinder, wheel cylinder, etc.). Then make nec-
essary repairs.

Removal
CAUTION:
+Be careful not to splash brake ¯uid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake ¯uid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
+ In the case of brake ¯uid leakage from the master cylinder,
disassemble the cylinder. Then check piston cups for
deformation or scratches and replace necessary parts.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to air bleeder valve.
2. Drain brake ¯uid from each air bleeder valve, depressing brake pedal to empty ¯uid from master cylinder.
3. Remove brake pipe ¯are nuts.
4. Remove master cylinder mounting nuts.

Disassembly
1. Bend claws of stopper cap outward.
2. Remove piston stopper while piston is pushed into cylinder(Models with ABS only).
3. Remove piston assemblies.
If it is difficult to remove secondary piston assembly, gradually
apply compressed air through ¯uid outlet.
4. Draw out reservoir tank.
Inspection
Check master cylinder inner wall for pin holes or scratches.
Replace if damaged.
Assembly
1. Insert secondary piston assembly. Then insert primary piston assembly.
+ Pay attention to direction of piston cups in ®gure at left.
Also, insert pistons squarely to avoid scratches on cylin-
der bore.
+ Pay attention to alignment of secondary piston slit with
valve stopper mounting hole of cylinder body (Models with
ABS only).
2. Install stopper cap.
Before installing stopper cap, ensure that claws are bent
inward.
3. Push reservoir tank seals into cylinder body.
4. Push reservoir tank into cylinder body.

5. Install valve stopper while piston is pushed into cylinder (Modelwith ABS only).
Installation
CAUTION:
+Re®ll with new brake ¯uid ``DOT 3''.
+ Never reuse drained brake ¯uid.
1. Place master cylinder onto brake booster and secure mounting nuts lightly.
2. Torque mounting nuts.
:12-15N zm (1.2 - 1.5 kg-m ,9-11ft-lb)
3. Fill up reservoir tank with new brake ¯uid.
4. Plug all ports on master cylinder with ®ngers to prevent air suction while releasing brake pedal.
5. Have driver depress brake pedal slowly several times until no air comes out of master cylinder.
6. Fit brake lines to master cylinder.
7. Tighten ¯are nuts.
:15-17N zm (1.5 - 1.7 kg-m, 11 - 12 ft-lb)
8. Bleed air. Refer to ``Bleeding Brake System'', BR-4.

Brake Booster
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
Operating check
+Depress brake pedal several times with engine off. After
exhausting vacuum, make sure there is no change in pedal
stroke.
+ Depress brake pedal, then start engine. If pedal goes down
slightly, operation is normal.
Airtight check
+Start engine, and stop it after one or two minutes. Depress
brake pedal several times slowly. Booster is airtight if pedal
stroke is less each time.
+ Depress brake pedal while engine is running, and stop engine
with pedal depressed. The pedal stroke should not change after
holding pedal down for 30 seconds.
REMOVAL
CAUTION:
+Be careful not to splash brake ¯uid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake ¯uid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
+ Be careful not to deform or bend brake pipes, during
removal of booster.
INSPECTION
Output rod length check
1. Apply vacuum of þ66.7 kPa (þ500 mmHg, þ19.69 inHg) to
brake booster with a hand vacuum pump.
2. Check output rod length. Speci®ed length:10.275 - 10.525 mm (0.4045 - 0.4144 in)
INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
+Be careful not to deform or bend brake pipes during instal-
lation of booster.
+ Replace clevis pin if damaged.
+ Re®ll with new brake ¯uid ``DOT 3''.
+ Never reuse drained brake ¯uid.
+ Take care not to damage brake booster mounting bolt
thread when installing. Due to the narrow angle of
installation, the threads can be damaged by the dash
panel.

BRAKE BOOSTER
BR-15

1. Before ®tting booster, temporarily adjust clevis to dimensionshown.
2. Fit booster, then secure mounting nuts (brake pedal bracket to brake booster) lightly.
3. Connect brake pedal and booster input rod with clevis pin.
4. Secure mounting nuts. Speci®cation: 13 - 16 N zm (1.3 - 1.6 kg-m ,9-12ft-lb)
5. Install master cylinder. Refer to ``Installation'' in ``MASTER CYLINDER'', BR-14.
6. Adjust brake pedal height and free play. Refer to ``Adjustment'' in ``BRAKE PEDAL AND BRACKET'',
BR-10.
7. Secure lock nut for clevis.
:16-22N zm (1.6 - 2.2 kg-m, 12 - 16 ft-lb)
8. Bleed air. Refer to ``Bleeding Brake System'', BR-4.
