5. Serpentine belt from coolant pump pulley.
6. Compressor shaft bolt using J 33027-A and a socket.
7. Pressure plate, working the pressure plate from side to side and pulling forward.
NOTICE:
^ If pressure plate is stuck to the shaft, procedure may be done with the uses of a M8 x 1.25 screw ground to a point and a pressure plate holding tool J 33027-A.
^ Hold pressure plate with J 33027-A. Thread a M8 x 1.25 screw into pressure plate center. Turn screw and extract pressure plate.
8. Shim from pressure plate.
9. Retaining ring securing rotor.
NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the pulley when tapping on the rotor.

4. Pressure plate.
5. Compressor shaft bolt using J 33027-A and a socket.
Tighten
^ Compressor shaft bolt to 13 N.m (10 lb. ft.).
6. Check clearance between the pressure plate and rotor using a thickness gage.
Adjust
^ If clearance is not within 0.5 mm ± 0.15 mm (0.02 in. ± 0.006 in.), add or reduce the number of shims to obtain the standard clearance.
