  1. Using SST and a dial indicator, measure the direct clutch pack clearance while applying and releasing compressed air (186 to 206 kPa (1.9 to 2.1 kgf/cm2, 27 to 30 psi)).

    SST
    09350-30020(09350-06120)
    Pack clearance:
    0.40 to 0.70 mm (0.016 to 0.028 in.)
    If the pack clearance is not as specified, parts may have been assembled incorrectly. Check and reassemble again.
    HINT:
    1. If the pack clearance is still not as specified, select another flange.
    2. There are 8 different flange thicknesses.
