Maximum: 53.076 mm (2.090 in)





Clutch Component Preinspection

Clutch operation
1. Set the clutch component onto the oil pump.

Caution
^ Applying compressed air to the assembled clutch pack for longer than 3 seconds at a time will damage the seal.
Do not apply compressed air for more than the aforementioned time when testing the system.

2. Check the clutch operation by applying compressed air through the fluid passages shown.





3. If not as specified, replace parts as necessary.

Clutch clearance
1. Measure the clearance.

Clearance
Reverse clutch:
1.0 - 1.3 mm (0.039 - 0.051 in)
Forward clutch:
0.97 - 1.2 mm (0.038 - 0.047 in)
Coasting clutch:
1.0 - 1.23 mm (0.039 - 0.048 in)





2. If not as specified, replace parts as necessary.
