3000GT VR-4 AWD V6-2972cc 3.0L DOHC MFI Twin Turbo (1998)
1. With the engine stopped, press the brake pedal two or three times. After eliminating the vacuum in the power brake booster, press the pedal down
by hand, and confirm that the amount of movement before feeling resistance is met (the free play) is within the standard value range.
Standard value (C): 3 - 8 mm (0.1 - 0.3 inch)
2. If the free play is less than the standard value, confirm that the clearance between the stop light switch and brake pedal is within the standard value.
If the free play exceeds the standard value, it is probably due to excessive play between the clevis pin and brake pedal arm. Check for excessive
clearance and replace faulty parts as required.
CLEARANCE BETWEEN BRAKE PEDAL AND FLOOR BOARD
1. Turn back the carpet etc. at under the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine, depress the brake pedal with approximately 500 N (110 lbs.) of force, and measure the clearance between the brake pedal and the
floorboard.
Standard value (D): 80 mm (3.1 inch) or more
If the clearance is less than the standard value, check for air trapped in the brake line and for brake fluid leaks. If necessary, check the brake
system mechanism (excessive shoe clearance due to faulty auto adjuster) and repair faulty parts as required.
4. Put back the carpet to it's original position.
