Input Clutch

• Check the clearance of the input clutch. Measure the clearance "L" between snap ring and retaining plate using a thickness gauge. If it is out of specification, replace the entire direct clutch assembly.
• Check for damage on the drive plate, driven plate and snap ring, and replace the entire input clutch assembly if damaged.

Standard value: 0.7-1.1 mm (0.028 - 0.043 in)
