Clutch Pedal Squeak Noise

Applications:
1984-95 Chevrolet -GMC S/T Series Pickup
1994-95 Chevrolet -GMC C/K Series Pickup


    A squeaking noise may come from the clutch area when the clutch pedal is not engaged. This noise will stop when a slight amount of pressure is applied to the pedal. The noise may be confused with a noisy clutch release bearing. This noise is usually caused by a dry clutch fork pivot ball stud which causes metal to metal contact with the clutch fork. This will also cause extreme wear and allow the pivot ball to become out of round. As a result, the fork will not rotate properly causing release problems. GENERAL MOTORS now offers a “Greaseable Ball Stud” that will enable lubrication without removal. For full details please contact your local dealership and refer to “Technical Service Bulletin” # 16-73-01 for the C/K trucks or #56-73-01 for the S/T trucks.
