Misalignment causes the “O” ring in front of the secondary seal to leak hydraulic fluid. Inspection Procedure 1. If the truck is a 1988 or later model, confirm that the starter interlock switch operates (the engine can be started) with the clutch pedal at least 0.5? (12.7 mm) from the floor. 2. Test drive the truck and check for good clutch release.
There should be no grinding of the gears, particularly when shifting from neutral to reverse gear. 3. If the truck passes these tests, go to the Small Reinforcement Installation Procedure Section of this article. a. Remove the clutch master cylinder pushrod from the release lever pin on the release lever. b. Make sure the hole in the pushrod lines up with the pin, for those units requiring a minimal force for installation, Figure 1. c. If it does not line up correctly, install an adjustable pushrod (except 1988 and later models) or replace the clutch release lever (required on 1988 and later models), cutting a new seat on the cross shaft splines.
