Clutch Release Fork: All Technical Service Bulletins
Clutch Pedal - Squeak Noise
File in Section: 7 - Transmission
Bulletin No.: 56-73-01
Date: February, 1995
SUBJECT:
Clutch Pedal Squeak Noise (Install Greaseable Ball Stud)
MODELS:
1994-95 Chevrolet and GMC Truck C/K 1, 2 and S/T Models
with NV3500 5-Speed Manual Transmission (RPOs MG5, MY2, M50)
CONDITION
A squeak noise may come from the clutch area when the clutch pedal is fully released (foot off the clutch pedal) and the engine is running. This squeak
will stop when slight pressure is placed on the clutch pedal. This noise may be confused with a squeaking or noisy clutch release bearing.
CAUSE
This noise is usually caused by a dry clutch fork ball stud which causes metal to metal contact with the clutch fork. The grease fitting was removed in
production for the 1994 and 1995 model years so the joint is no longer greaseable.
CORRECTION
Install a greaseable ball stud.
Service Procedure
1.
Remove the transmission following directions in the appropriate Service Manual, Section 7B, Manual Transmission.
