FLUSHING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID COOLER AND LINE
The fluid cooler and lines may be flushed under the
following condition. This will help prevent more trouble
after the transmission is repaired.
1. When the abnormal amount of debris are found.
2. When the abnormal wear or chips on gears and
shafts are found while overhauling.
3. When the abnormal clutch facing wear and oil
contamination are found.

Procedures
1. Block the wheels.
2. Disconnect negative battery cable.
3. Raise vehicle and support with suitable safety
stands.
4. Disconnect fluid cooler lines at transmission case
and fluid cooler.
5. Flush and back-flush the fluid cooler and lines using
solvent and compressed air.
Note:
DO NOT exceed 197 kPa (29 psi) air pressure or
damage may result to oil cooler.

6. Remove all remaining solvent from the system with
compressed air.
7. Flush the cooling system again with Automatic
Transmission Fluid (ATF).
After the final flush, connect all lines.
Cooler line joint connector torque :
44 N·m (33 lb·ft)
8. Replenish ATF
9. Start engine to test the system for the free flow o
f
fluid. If the flow is restricted, the cooler assembly o
r
lines must be replaced.
Repeated cleaning and flushing may not remove all
debris from the fluid cooler circuit.
Move the select lever through the various ranges and
return to neutral.
Check for fluid level.
If the fluid level is below the specified range, ATF
must be added.
10. Connect negative battery cable.
11. Remove safety stands.
12. Remove wheel blocks.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
DISASSEMBLY
Cleaning the automatic transmission
1. Use compressed steam and /or cleaning oil to thoroughly
clean the outside of the transmission before disassembly.
CAUTION:
Steam under high pressure may cause dirt particles
adhering to the transmission to fly through the air at great
speed. These particles can cause serious eye injury. Wear
protective goggles when steam-cleaning the outside of
the transmission.
2. During disassembly, clean the removed parts with cleaning
oil. Dry the parts with compressed air.
Use Compressed air to clean the transmission oil holes
and oil passages.

Automatic transmission disassembly cautions

Perform the disassembly procedure in a dust-free
environment to prevent the entry of foreign material into
the transmission.

Inspect each transmission part as you remove it.

Carefully check the oil pan and the magnet for foreign
material. This is a good way to estimate transmission
condition.

Use your bare hands or vinyl gloves to disassemble the
transmission. Do not use ordinary work gloves (loose
threads from the gloves may fall into the transmission and
cause problems).

Use a plastic hammer to loosen the transmission case
and other aluminum parts during disassembly. Strike
around the parts lightly with the hammer. Do not pry
aluminum parts away from each other with a screwdriver
or similar object.

Arrange the disassembled parts neatly in the order they
were removed. Cover the parts with a plastic sheet or
similar object to protect them from dust.

If there is an excessive accumulation of foreign material,
the oil strainer must be replaced.
Further inspection is required to determine the source o
f
the foreign material.
