Removal, check of a state and installation of components of assembly of coupling

Remember that the dust developed in the course of wear of frictional overlays of the conducted coupling disk may contain unhealthy asbestos. Do not blow off dust compressed air and try not to inhale it. Do not apply to rubbing of components of coupling solvents on an oil basis, – use only special brake cleaners or pure methyl alcohol. Put the used rags in hermetically closed container.

Removal

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. For the purpose of ensuring access to coupling assembly usually remove a transmission, leaving the engine on the car. If the engine is already removed for performance of the general or capital repairs, the condition of components of coupling has to be checked without fail. Meaning rather small cost of details and rather high volume of metalwork works on ensuring access to coupling assembly, it makes sense to make replacement of the last regardless of a condition of components. The description of procedure of removal of coupling without extraction of the engine from the car is given below.
2. Remove a gear shifting box (see a 5-staged manual box of gear shifting). Prop up the engine a jack, or hang out it from above on the winch (the last is preferable). In case of use of a jack do not forget to lay between its head and the pallet of a case wooden whetstone for the purpose of distribution of loading.

Maslozabornik of the oil pump settles down very close to the bottom of the pallet of a case and can be easily damaged at deformation of the last.


3. A fork of switching off of coupling and the bearing can be left vyzhimny on the place in a transmission case.
4. In order to avoid loss of the conducted disk at removal of a basket, pass throughout its nave the special tool for coupling centering.

5. Attentively examine surfaces of a flywheel and assembly of a basket of coupling on marking existence (usually in the form of the letters of X or O put with white paint). If it is not possible to find marking, put it independently, having unambiguously marked the provision of a basket concerning a flywheel (see an accompanying illustration).

6. Working in a diagonal order, in stages evenly weaken bolts of fastening of a basket of coupling to a flywheel (see an accompanying illustration), having completely unloaded a spring. Reliably supporting coupling assembly, finally turn out bolts, then separate a basket from a flywheel and remove all assembly from the car.

Check

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Most often violation of serviceability of functioning of coupling is connected with wear of frictional overlays of the conducted disk. Nevertheless, it is necessary to study a condition of all components of assembly attentively.
2. Study a working surface of a flywheel on existence of cracks, traces of an overheat, furrows and other damages. Insignificant defects can be eliminated by a pro-point in the conditions of a workshop of car service (the pro-point is recommended to be made regardless of a condition of a surface). The description of procedures of removal and installation of a flywheel is provided appropriate section of the Head Dvigatel.

3. Estimate degree of wear of frictional overlays of the conducted coupling disk. The surface of slips has to tower over heads of rivets at least on 1.6 mm. Make sure of density of landing of all rivets, check the torsion springs / dampers for existence of cracks, traces of deformation and other mechanical damages (see an accompanying illustration). As it was already mentioned above, replacement of components of coupling it is reasonable to make every time at their removal therefore pay attention to the slightest errors.

4. Together with the conducted disk as well vyzhimny the bearing is always replaced (see Removal, check of a state and installation of the vyzhimny bearing and a fork of switching off of coupling). Taking an opportunity, at the same time check a condition of the directing bearing in a pin of a cranked shaft (see Check of a state and replacement of the directing bearing).

5a. Estimate a condition of the processed surfaces and petals of a diaphragm spring of a press disk (see accompanying illustrations).

5b. Check a frictional surface for existence of damages. At detection of defects replace assembly of a basket. Traces of easy polishing can be removed by means of a fine-grained emery paper. In firm service centers of the Honda company it is always possible to get the restored assembly on an exchange basis.

Installation

 PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Before installation wipe the surfaces of a flywheel and a press disk which were exposed to machining by the rags moistened in acetone. It is extremely important to achieve full degreasing of working surfaces of components, as well as frictional overlays of the conducted disk. Touch components with only purely washed up hands.
2. Press assembly of a basket with the tool enclosed in it and fixed for centering of components by the conducted disk to a flywheel. Track that disks of coupling were developed to a flywheel marked with the corresponding marking ("flywheel side" type) by the parties. If marking is absent, remember that the conducted disk has to be established by the torsion springs / dampers to a transmission.
3. By hand tighten bolts of fastening of assembly to a flywheel.

4. Make centering of components of assembly of coupling. The special tool is passed through a nave of the conducted disk and refuels in a pocket in an end face of a pin of a cranked shaft (see an accompanying illustration). For alignment of components move the tool in different directions in the vertical plane. Moving in a diagonal order, in stages tighten densely assembly fastening bolts, then hold on them with the demanded effort. Take the tool for coupling centering.

5. Refractory greasing fill an internal flute of the vyzhimny bearing (see Removal, check of a state and installation of the vyzhimny bearing and a fork of switching off of coupling). Also grease contact surfaces of the lever of switching off of coupling and the holder of the bearing of primary shaft of a transmission.
6. Install to the place of vyzhimny the bearing (see Check of a state and replacement of the directing bearing).
7. Establish a transmission and all components which were removed for the purpose of ensuring access.
