HONDA CIVIC 1999 6.G Workshop Manual

Road Test
NOTE: Warm up the engine to normal operating tem peratu re (the rad iator fan comes on )'
1. Apply parking brake and block the wheels. Start the engine, then shift to E position while depressing the brake
Dedal, Depress the accelerator pedal and release it suddenly. The engine should not stall'
2. Repeat same test in E Position.
3. Test-drive the vehicle on a flat road in the E position. Check that the shift points occur at approximate speeds shown
in the table. Also check for abnormal noise and clutch slippage.
NOTE: Throttle position sensor voltage represents the throttle opening
a. Unbolt the PCM for road testing; refer to page 14-50.
b. Setthedigital multimeter to check the th rottle position sensor voltage between PCM terminals;

Accelerate to about 35 mph (57 km/h) so the transmlssion is in 4th, then shift from Dl position to Z position The
vehicle should immediately begin slowing down from engine braking'
CAUTION: Do not shift from -91 or -Dd position to E position at speeds ov6r 63 mph {100 km/hl; You mav damage
the transmission.
Check for abnormal noise and clutch slippage in the following positions'
E (2nd Gear) Position
ll Accelerate from a stop at full throttle. check that there is no abnormal noise or clutch slippage.
b. Upshifts and downshifts should not occur with the selector in this posirion'
E (Reverse) Position
i"ccelerate from a stop at fullthrottle, and check for abnormal noise and clutch slippage'
Test in B (Park) Position
Park the vehicle on slope (approx. l6'), apply the parking brake' and shift into E position Belease the brake; the veh'

Stall Speed
Test
CAUTION:
. To prev€nt transmission damage, do not t6st stall speed for more than ro sgconds at a time.. Do not shift the levor while raising the engine speed.. Bo sule lo remove the pressure gauge betoro testing stall speed.
'1. Engage the parking brake, and block the front wheels.
2. Connect a tachometer to the engine, and start the engine.
3. Make sure the Ay'C switch is OFF.
4. After the engine has warmed up to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on). shift into E position.
5. Fully depress the brake pedal and accelerator for 6 to g seconds, and note engine speed.
6. Allow two minutes for cooling, then repeat the test in @ and @ positions.
NOTE:
. Stall speed tests should be used for diagnostic purposes only,. Stall speed should be the same in o., E and E positions.

1.Warm up the engine to normal operating tempera-
ture (the radiator fan comes on)
Park the vehicle on the level ground, then turn off
the engrne.
Remove the dipstick (yellow loop) from the trans-
mission. and wipe it with a clean cloth.
Insert the dipstick into the transmrssron
Remove the dipstick and check the fluid level lt
should be between the upper mark and lower
marks.
UPPER MABKLOWER MARK
lf the level is below the lower mark, pour the recom-
mended fluid into the tiller hole to bring it to the
upper mark. Always use Genuine Honda Premium
Formula Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF). Using
a non-Honda ATF can affect shift quality

Pressure Testing
@I While testing, be caroful of th€ rotating front wheels.
. Make sure lifts, iacks, and satoty stands are placod properly (see section 1)'
CAUTION:
. Beforo iesting, be sure the transmission fluid is tilled to tho proper level'
. Warm up tho engine before testing'
1. Raise the vehicle (see section 1).
2. Warm up the engine, then stop the engine and connect a tachometer'
3. Connect the oil pressure gauges to each inspection hole.
