Fan Hubs
Check clutch lining condition and thickness every
80,000 km (50,000 miles). Use lining wear gauges where
applicable.
Inspect engagement mechanism for air leaks.
Clutch Hydraulic Fluid
Change the hydraulic fluid in the hydraulic system for the
clutch. The clutch hydraulic system fluid collects moisture
from the air and will eventually hold enough moisture to
affect the metal surfaces in the system unless removed.
Drain fluid by removing the lid for the fluid container and
then drain through the bleed fitting on the clutch slave
cylinder into a container.
Use bleeder tool 9996928 to refill the hydraulic system
with new fluid. Use fluid to specification DOT 4.
