Clutch pedal mounting elements
1 - clutch pedal; 2 - bushing; 3 - bracket; 4 - adjusting bolt or clutch release sensor; 5 - spring; 6 - pin; 7 - emphasis; 8 - tube; 9 - clutch master cylinder.
If there are difficulties when disengaging and engaging the clutch, check the height and free travel of the clutch pedal.
Measure the distance from the rubber pedal pad to the mat. The nominal value of dimension A is 162-165 mm.
Press your finger on the clutch pedal until you feel a noticeable resistance and measure the free travel of the pedal.
Required value B: 1-3 mm.
If this gap is outside the tolerances, the following adjustment must be made:
Loosen the lock nut, adjust the clutch pedal height with the adjusting bolt. Tighten the lock nut to about 15 Nm. If the clutch pedal height is lower than the required value, loosen the bolt and turn the push rod so that adjustment can be made. After adjustment, tighten the adjusting bolt until the pedal stops and tighten the lock nut.
Adjust the clutch pedal free play at the fork head pin by rotating the push rod. Then tighten the rod lock nut to about 15 Nm.
Press the clutch pedal several times and check the distance from the pedal to the floor with the clutch depressed. The required value is 70 mm or more. The free travel of the clutch pedal should be between 6 and 13 mm.
The original can be found on the website [MITSUBISHIMAN]
If the pedal height or free play is outside the tolerance range, the clutch or master cylinder is faulty, or there is air in the hydraulic system.
Clutch release sensor - check
Connect an ohmmeter to the clutch release sensor terminals.
The clutch release sensor is in good condition if the circuit is open when the sensor rod extends less than 4 mm from the end of the sensor housing, and the circuit is closed when the rod extends more than 4 mm.
