PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS (B.W.T5R)
1. Separate the clutch release fork from its ball stud and remove the ball stud from the clutch housing.
2. Inspect these parts:
- Ball stud
- Fork
- Release bearing
- Fingers of the pressure plate spring.
Replace any parts which have excessive wear.
3. Check the alignment of the clutch housing to the engine in these steps:
- Place the magnetic base for a dial indicator on the pressure plate spring fingers. Make sure the base is secure.
- Check the housing bore alignment by:
- Mounting the dial indicator against the bore
- Rotating the engine one revolution while recording total dial indicator needle travel
- Check the housing face alignment by:
- Mounting the dial indicator against the housing face
- Rotating the engine one revolution while recording total dial indicator needle travel
If either reading is greater than 0.254 mm (0.010 inch), place special shims between the engine and clutch housing to correct the misalignment.
4. Check the condition of these clutch system parts if you suspect excessive wear:
- Pressure plate assembly
- Driven disc (especially the torsional damping springs)
- Flywheel
- Input shaft pilot bearing.
Replace any parts which have excessive wear.
5. Reassemble the clutch system parts. Be sure to lubricate the clutch release bearing bore and fork groove and also the head of the fork pivot.
