Note:  
     
If installed, place intermediate plate onto 
bushings. 
     Make sure that wires do not get pinched as 
transmission is docked at engine. 
      Check whether the torque converter is still 
properly installed and has not slid out of the 
converter housing toward the font:  
     
-  It must be possible to easily turn torque 
converter by hand without much force. 
     
WARNING! 
     
In case of an incorrectly inserted torque 
converter, the coupling plate of the torque 
converter or the ATF-pump will be destroyed, 
if the transmission is flanged to the engine.
