Measuring Installation Space F


    Object Number: 1256031  Size: SH
  1. Using a DT 46479  (1), measure from the transaxle housing sealing surfaces to the piston's disc support surface at 2 opposing points, M1, M2.
  2. Average the measurement values, M1, M2 = BF.
  3. Calculation

    • BF is (M1 + M2)/2
    • M1 = 18.6 mm (0.73 in)
    • M2 = 18.8 mm (0.74 in)
    • BF = 18.7 mm (0.735 in)

Determining Adjusting Disc F

  1. Calculate the test dimension PF (PF = BF - MF).
  2. BF = installation space

    MF = disc set thickness assume 14.50 mm (0.57 in)

    EXAMPLE

    BF = 18.70 mm (0.735 in)

    MF = 14.50 mm (0.571 in)

    PF = 4.2 mm (0.164 in)

  3. Find the disc set thickness. Refer to Transmission General Specifications .
  4. PF is 4.20 mm (0.164 in), so the disc set thickness is 3.0 mm (0.12 in).

  5. Replace clutch B setting disc 3.0 mm (0.12 in).
