HINT:

Pay close attention to the change in resistance to distinguish between pedal free play and push rod play while performing the inspection.

(1) Depress the clutch pedal until resistance is felt.

(2) Measure the distance between the pedal's released position and the position in the previous step.

Pedal free play:

5.0 to 15.0 mm (0.197 to 0.591 in.)

(3) Release the pedal. Using your finger, gently press the pedal until resistance increases slightly.

(4) Measure the distance between the pedal's released position and the position in the previous step.

Push rod play at pedal top:

1.0 to 5.0 mm (0.0394 to 0.197 in.)

(e) Adjust the pedal free play and push rod play.

HINT:

The push rod play can be adjusted by changing the length of the push rod. Pedal free play changes together with push rod play.

(1) Loosen the lock nut and turn the push rod until the pedal free play and push rod play are within the specified ranges.

NOTICE:

If pedal free play and push rod play are not within the standard range even after adjustment, inspect the related parts.

(2) Tighten the lock nut.

Torque:

12 N·m {120 kgf·cm, 9 ft·lbf}

(3) After adjusting the pedal free play and push rod play, check the pedal height.
