Removing
1. Remove the gearbox.
2. Mark the position of the clutch master assembly in relation to the flywheel using a marker or paint.
.
3. Gradually loosen the master clutch bolts in a diagonal sequence by turning each bolt half a turn until the spring action stops and the bolts can be unscrewed by hand.
4. Remove the clutch master assembly and clutch disc.
Examination
1. Check the clutch disc linings for wear, mechanical damage or oil contamination.
2. If these defects are present, the clutch disc must be replaced.
3. If the friction linings are in good condition and not worn to the grooves, the damper springs are securely fastened and the rivet connections are not loose, then the clutch disc can be installed in the car.
4. If the clutch disc is contaminated with oil, check the left crankshaft or transmission input shaft oil seal. If necessary, replace the O-rings before installing a new clutch disc.
5. Check the drive plate assembly for wear on the pressure plate, mechanical damage, reliability of the rivet connection, damage to the clutch diaphragm spring. If the diaphragm spring is worn or damaged, or there is a suspicion that the spring elasticity has changed, then the drive disc assembly must be replaced.
6. Check the working surfaces of the pressure plate and flywheel mating with the clutch disc linings. They must be clean, flat and free of scratches and dings.
7. Check the thrust bearing, which should rotate easily, evenly and silently. The working surface of the bearing acting on the pressure spring must be smooth, without cracks, local corrosion or wear. If these defects are present, the clutch slave cylinder must be replaced.
Installation
Installation is made in sequence, return to removal. At the same time, center the clutch disc with a mandrel so that the input shaft of the gearbox passes through the grooves in the center of the clutch disc.
