What's this part?

[Chris da Silva]

In the EA21R Service Manual, does anyone know what this part is as the description is in Japanese? It's Item #13 in Figure 3.

Is the part number 11320-60C02 or is it 11320-80C02? The print is not very clear ...

Can anyone help, please?

If you look at the EA11R Parts Catalog, Fig, 3 Item 6, you can see an identical-looking part, which is 11320-60C00, and is the PLATE, Clutch Housing, Lower.

The EA21R item is 11320-60C02, and will have the same descriptor. It's basically the same part, with a minor update, hence C02 instead of C00.

Have you got a problem in that area?

Hello Ian

No; but this is what's going to be done to the car some time next month ...

The engine will be removed from the vehicle again and partially stripped down because I suspect the bloke who worked on it didn't re-assemble it properly. That produced an oil leak where it didn't have one before. (That bloke has now retired, BTW.)

This means that I'll have to do a "start from scratch" approach by another mechanic. To get things rolling, I bought all the parts required (gasket sets etc.) and a clutch housing plate in case the one in the car has been damaged when that retired bloke put the engine back!

I'll keep you updated with the progress.
