worn and loose rivets at the hub.
^
broken springs.
^
wear and rust on the splines.
-
Install a new clutch disc if any of these conditions are present.
6. NOTE: If necessary, use a suitable cleaning solution to remove any oil film from the clutch pressure plate friction surface.
Inspect the clutch pressure plate levers for heavy wear associated with binding. Also, inspect for substantial difference in lever wear. Inspect the
clutch pressure plate friction surface for scoring, burning, heat checking, distortion, warping and dishing.
^
Install a new clutch pressure plate if any of these conditions are present.
7. NOTE: If necessary, use a suitable cleaning solution to clean the flywheel clutch surface.
Inspect the flywheel for:
^
surface cracks.
^
heat check.
^
glazing.
