CLUTCH HUB REMOVAL Remove clutch retaining ring or nut. Use a spanner wrench to prevent the hub plate from turning. 2. Attach the tool to the end plate by threading the outer nut of the tool into the center hole of the clutch end plate. 3. Tighten the inner tool arbor against the end of the compressor. Tech Tip: Proper air gap between the clutch pulley and hub armature is critical to compressor overall performance. Failure to maintain the proper spacing, as indicated in the mfgrs. specifications can lead to problems such as clutch burning or slippage. shaft to lift the plate.
Briefly, this engine has problems. With distressing frequency these engines show significant, grossly premature wear, requiring expensive rebuilding. Symptoms are excessive oil consumption, mechanical noise, smoke, and a throbbing idle. Diagnostic procedures usually reveal that one or more cylinders have compression that is below specification, with excessive variation in the compression among all cylinders. Mechanical teardown frequently reveals cylinders that are out of round and connecting rods that are bent.
1. Introduction
Parrot’s unique Bluetooth Car Kits give customers the convenience of hands-free phone use in their cars, vans, pickups, and SUVs. Use of a hands-free phone helps to minimize driving distractions and optimize driver safety by permitting drivers’ hands to stay on the wheel and eyes to remain focused on the road. In fact, many states and cities have recently enacted laws and ordinances that ban the use of hand-held phones while driving. However, whether or not a customer can take full advantage of Parrot’s hands-free technology depends in large part on each individual dealer – and how well the Car Kit is installed, as well as how well dealers, installers, and their associates can guide your customer through its proper use. This Parrot Installation Guide is designed for use by all Parrot product dealers and installers. The document’s primary focus is on the needs of the independent installing retailer and methods for ensuring customer satisfaction.
