CONDITION
Some owners may experience a clutch pedal squeak. This noise usually stops when a slight amount of pressure is applied to the clutch pedal.
CAUSE
The noise or squeak is caused by a dry contact area between the clutch fork and ball stud. This results in metal to metal contact.
CORRECTION
Install a greaseable ball stud. Greaseable ball studs entered production December 1994 and can be identified by a grease fitting on the right side of the
clutch housing.
Service Procedure
1. Remove transmission, slave cylinder, flywheel housing and clutch fork.
^
Complete removal directions can be found in Sections 7B and 7C of the appropriate S/T Service Manual.
2. Remove the ball stud from the flywheel housing.
