BEARING ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
The A-598 (T-750) transaxle has two bearing
adjustment procedures that must be performed if the
transaxle case or related components have been
replaced. If the intermediate shaft, and/or bearing
cups and cones have been replaced, you must per-
form the intermediate shaft preload shim adjust-
ment. If the differential case, cups or cones have

been replaced, you must perform the differential
bearing preload shim adjustment. If the transaxle
case has been replaced, you must perform both pro-
cedures.
GENERAL RULES ON SERVICING BEARINGS
(1) Use extreme care when removing and install-
ing bearing cups and cones. Burrs or nicks on the
bearing seat will give a false end play reading while
gauging for proper shims. Improperly seated bearing
cups and cones are subject to low±mileage failure.
(2) Bearing cups and cones should be replaced if
they show signs of pitting or heat distress. If distress
is seen on either the cup or bearing rollers, both cup
and cone must be replaced.(3) Bearing preload and drag torque specifications
must be maintained to avoid premature bearing fail-
ures. Used (original) bearings may lose up to 50% of
their original drag torque after break in. All bearing
adjustments must be made with no other component
interference or gear intermesh.
(4) Replace bearings as a pair: If one differential
bearing is defective, replace both differential bear-
ings.
(5) Bearing cones must not be reused if removed.
(6) Turning torque readings should be obtained
while smoothly rotating in either direction.
INTERMEDIATE SHAFT BEARING PRELOAD
The intermediate shaft preload must be checked if
the housing, intermediate shaft, bearing plate, bear-
ings, or transaxle case are replaced.
The intermediate shaft bearing preload procedure
must be done with the transaxle out of the vehicle
and on a bench.
(1) Remove end cover (Fig. 226).
(2) Remove 5th shift fork roll pin (Fig. 227).
(3) Use Special Tool 6252 to hold 5th gear. Remove
input shaft 5th gear nut (Fig. 228).
(4) Remove 5th gear synchro snap ring (Fig. 229).
(5) Remove 5th gear synchro, synchro plate, and
fork.
(6) Remove 5th drive gear off of the input shaft
(Fig. 230).
(7) Remove bearing retainer plate (Fig. 231).
(8) Remove bearing preload shim (Fig. 232).
(9) Bolt down the bearing support plate in two
places (verify dowels are in place).
(10) Seat the intermediate bearing cup against the
bearing.
(11) Measure depth of intermediate bearing cup
with dial depth gauge (Fig. 233).

GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
Both the heater and the heater/air conditioning
systems share many of the same components. This
group will deal with both systems together when
component function is common, and separately when
they are not.
For proper operation of the instrument panel con-
trols, refer to the Owner's Manual provided with the
vehicle.
All vehicles are equipped with a common A/C-
heater unit housing assembly. When the vehicle has
only a heater system, the evaporator and recirculat-
ing air door are omitted.
An optional zone control HVAC unit is available.
This unit has dual blend-air doors that can be regu-
lated independently of each other. The temperature
setting can be different from driver's side to passen-
ger side. There is also a rear (aux.) heating and A/C
system available when the vehicle is equipped with
zone control.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
WARNING: WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN SER-
VICING THE AIR CONDITIONING REFRIGERANT
SYSTEM. SERIOUS EYE INJURY CAN RESULT
FROM EYE CONTACT WITH REFRIGERANT. IF EYE
CONTACT IS MADE, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION
IMMEDIATELY.
DO NOT EXPOSE REFRIGERANT TO OPEN
FLAME. POISONOUS GAS IS CREATED WHEN
REFRIGERANT IS BURNED. AN ELECTRONIC TYPE
LEAK DETECTOR IS RECOMMENDED.
LARGE AMOUNTS OF REFRIGERANT RELEASED
IN A CLOSED WORK AREA WILL DISPLACE THE
OXYGEN AND CAUSE SUFFOCATION.
THE EVAPORATION RATE OF REFRIGERANT AT
AVERAGE TEMPERATURE AND ALTITUDE IS
EXTREMELY HIGH. AS A RESULT, ANYTHING THAT
COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE REFRIGERANT
WILL FREEZE. ALWAYS PROTECT SKIN OR DELI-
CATE OBJECTS FROM DIRECT CONTACT WITH
REFRIGERANT. R-134a SERVICE EQUIPMENT OR
VEHICLE A/C SYSTEM SHOULD NOT BE PRES-
SURE TESTED OR LEAK TESTED WITH COM-
PRESSED AIR.
SOME MIXTURES OF AIR and R-134a HAVE BEEN
SHOWN TO BE COMBUSTIBLE AT ELEVATED
PRESSURES. THESE MIXTURES ARE POTENTIALLY
DANGEROUS AND MAY RESULT IN FIRE OR
EXPLOSION CAUSING INJURY OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE.
ANTIFREEZE IS AN ETHYLENE GLYCOL BASE
COOLANT AND IS HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED ORINHALED. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDI-
ATELY IF SWALLOWED OR INHALED. DO NOT
STORE IN OPEN OR UNMARKED CONTAINERS.
WASH SKIN AND CLOTHING THOROUGHLY AFTER
COMING IN CONTACT WITH ETHYLENE GLYCOL.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN AND PETS.
DO NOT OPEN A COOLING SYSTEM WHEN THE
ENGINE IS AT RUNNING TEMPERATURE. PER-
SONAL INJURY CAN RESULT.
CAUTION: The engine cooling system is designed
to develop internal pressure of 97 to 123 kPa (14 to
18 psi). Allow the vehicle to cool a minimum of 15
minutes before opening the cooling system. Refer
to Group 7, Cooling System.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCTS
The air distribution ducts for the A/C, Heater,
Defroster, and Second Seating Air Distribution are
not serviceable in vehicle. The procedures for service
of these ducts are covered in Group 8E, Instrument
Panel and Gauges.
The only ducts that are serviceable in the vehicle
are the side window demister ducts and the ducts
that feed the front door outlets for the first rear pas-
senger(s) seating. To service the door ducts refer to
Group 23, Body.
A/C PRESSURE TRANSDUCER
The A/C Pressure Transducer (Fig. 1) monitors the
refrigerant gas pressure on the high side of the sys-
tem. The transducer is located on the liquid line. The
pressure transducer turns off the voltage to the com-
pressor clutch coil when refrigerant gas pressure
drops to levels that could damage the compressor.
The transducer also is used to adjust condenser fan
speeds and will turn off compressor at high refriger-
ant pressures. The pressure transducer is a sealed
factory calibrated unit. It must be replaced if defec-
tive. O-ring replacement is required whenever the
pressure transducer is serviced. Be sure to use the
O-ring specified for the transducer.
A/C SERVICE PORTS
The A/C service port valve cores are located within
the A/C lines (Fig. 2). The High Side (Discharge)
valve service port is located on the liquid line near
the right frame rail. The Low Side (Suction) valve
service port is located on the suction line near the
compressor.

tem, refer to Owner's Manual supplied with the vehi-
cle.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
REAR BLOWER RESISTOR BLOCK
The rear blower motor resistor is not serviceable
separately. The resistor is integral to the blower
motor. If resistor is faulty, it is necessary to replace
the complete blower motor.
REAR HEATER AND A/C LINES
The rear heater and A/C lines are all serviced as
individual pieces. When disconnecting any line orblock ensure that the area around it is clean of any
contaminations that can get in to the system (Fig. 1),
(Fig. 2), (Fig. 4), (Fig. 3) and (Fig. 5).
SYSTEM OPERATION
The auxiliary rear heating-air/conditioning unit is
located in the right rear quarter panel. The rear
heater A/C control operates in conjunction with the
front heater A/C control. A four position two speed
blower (override) switch is located on the front
Heater A/C control panel (Fig. 6). The operator can
use the rear heater A/C blower switch to operate the
blower, regardless of the rear control setting. In the
OFF position, the rear control will not function. In
the ON (RR) position, the rear control will function
normally providing three speeds (Fig. 7). The mode
setting is controlled by the front A/C control panel.
