shows wear or deterioration, replace

the seal.

4.
Inspect the seal counterbore and

remove all burrs and scores with cro-

cus cloth.

REAR CLUTCH (FMX)

AND REVERSE-HIGH CLUTCH

(C4 AND C6 AUTOMATIC)

1.
Inspect the drum band surface,

the bushing, and thrust surfaces for

scores. Minor scores may be removed

with crocus cloth. Badly scored parts

must be replaced.

Inspect the clutch piston bore and

the piston inner and outer bearing sur-

faces for scores. Check the air bleed

ball valve in the clutch piston for free

movement. Check the orifice to make

sure it is not plugged.

2.
Check the fluid passages for ob-

structions. All fluid passages must be

clean and free of obstructions.

3.
Inspect the clutch plates for wear

and scoring and check the plates for

fit on the clutch hub serrations. Re-

place all plates that are badly scored,

worn or do not fit freely in the hub

serrations.

4.
Inspect the clutch pressure plate

for scores on the clutch plate bearing

surface. Check the clutch release

spring(s) for distortion.

5.
On an FMX transmission, in-

spect the needle bearing for worn rol-

lers.

FRONT CLUTCH (FMX)

AND FORWARD CLUTCH

(C4 OR C6

TRANSMISSIONS)

1.
Inspect the clutch cylinder thrust

surfaces, piston bore, and clutch plate
serrations for scores or burrs. Minor

scores or burrs may be removed with

crocus cloth. Replace the clutch cylin-

der if it is badly scored or damaged.

2.
Check the fluid passage in the

clutch cylinder for obstructions. Clean

out all fluid passages. Inspect the

clutch piston for scores and replace if

necessary. Inspect the piston check

ball for freedom of movement and

proper seating (Fig. 28).

3.
Check the clutch release spring

for distortion and cracks. Replace the

spring if it is distorted or cracked.
4.
Inspect the composition and the

steel clutch plates and the clutch pres-

sure plate for worn or scored bearing

surfaces. Replace all parts that are

deeply scored.

5.
On FMX and C4 transmissions,

check the clutch plates for flatness

and fit on the clutch hub serrations.

Discard any plate that does not slide

freely on the serrations or that is not

flat.

6. Check the clutch hub thrust sur-

faces for scores and the clutch hub

splines for wear.

7.
On an FMX transmission, in-

spect the turbine shaft bearing sur-

faces for scores. If excessive clearance

or scores are found, discard the unit.

Check the splines on the turbine

shaft for wear and replace the shaft if

the splines are excessively worn. In-

spect the bushing in the turbine shaft

for scores. On a C4 or C6 Automatic

transmission, check the input shaft for

damaged or worn splines.

FRONT PUMP AND

STATOR SUPPORT

1.
Inspect the mating surfaces of

the pump body and cover for burrs.

2.
Inspect the drive and driven gear

bearing surface for scores, and check

the gear teeth for burrs. Inspect the

stator support splines for burrs and

wear.

3.
Check the fluid passages for ob-

structions.

4.
If any parts other than the stator

support are found defective, replace

the pump as a unit. Minor burrs and

scores may be removed with crocus

cloth. The stator support is serviced

separately.

5.
On a C4 or C6 Automatic trans-

mission, check the oil ring grooves in

the stator support for nicks, burrs or

damaged edges. On a C6 transmis-

sion, check the large seal ring groove

of the pump body for damage. Check

the gasket mating surface of the pump

body for damage.

REAR SUPPORT

(FMX TRANSMISSION)

1.
Inspect the gasket mating sur-

faces for damage.

2.
Inspect the support bushing for

scores.

3.
Inspect the rear support fluid

passages for obstructions.

4.
Check the fit of the fluid tubes in

the support.procarmanuals.com
