Tool Required

J 33169 Clutch Alignment Tool

1. Install the clutch cover and the clutch disc.

Important: Install the J 33169 or a used clutch drive gear in order to support the clutch cover and the clutch disc.

Align the marks made during removal. If new, align the lightest part of the clutch cover (identified by a yellow dot) with the heaviest part of the flywheel (identified with an X.)

Important: Tighten each bolt one turn at a time in order to avoid warping the clutch cover.




2. Install the clutch cover to the flywheel with the washers and the bolts.
3. Remove the clutch alignment tool.

Tighten

•	Tighten the clutch cover to flywheel bolts (gasoline engine) to 40 N·m(29 lb ft).

•	Tighten the clutch cover to flywheel bolts (diesel engine) to 34 N·m(25 lb ft).

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
