    NOTE: If the end play is out of the specified value, change the engine clutch select pressure plate in the following method below.
    • Less than specified end play: 1.4 mm (0.0551 in.) - (measured end play - average value of specified end play) = Appropriate engine clutch select pressure plate thickness
    • More than specified end play: 1.4 mm (0.0551 in.) + (measured end play - average value of specified end play) = Appropriate engine clutch select pressure plate thickness
