Clutch Assembly Adjustment (Valeo Internal Adjustment)




Clutch Assembly Adjustment (Valeo Internal Adjustment)

1. Disconnect the clutch linkage.
2. Measure the distance from the transmission /clutch brake to the release bearing with 25 Nm (6 lb) of force pulling the bearing toward the transmission.





1. If 99.9 mm (0.750 in) on transmissions without a clutch brake, no adjustment is necessary.
2. If 92.7 mm (0.50 in) on transmissions with a clutch brake, no adjustment is necessary.
3. If the release bearing position is incorrect, loosen the lock rings and turn the adjusting nut in order to achieve the proper distance.

* Use appropriate spanner wrench to loosen and tighten the lock nuts.




* Tighten the lock ring securely against the release lever spider.

3. Verify that adjustment clearance off 99.9 mm (0.750 in) on transmissions without a clutch brake, and 92.7 mm (0.50 in) on transmissions with a clutch brake, has been maintained, after tightening lock nuts.
