Throttle Body
Doscription
The throttle body is a single-barrel side-draft type. The
lower portion of the throttle valve is heated by engine
coolant from the cylinder head. The idle adjusting screw
which regulates the bypass air is located on the top of
the throttle bodv.

lnspection
Check that the throttle cable operates smoothly without
binding or sticking.
lf there are any abnormalities, check for:. Excessive wear or play in the throftle valve shaft.. Sticky or binding throttle lever at the fully closed posi-
tton.
. Clearance between throttle stop screw and throttle
lever at the fully closed position.

Automatic Transaxle (A/T) Gear Position IndicatorThis indicator in the instrument panel shows which gear has been selected.
Transler Mochanism {4WD}
The transfer mechanism consists of the transfer shaft drive gear. the transfer shaft. the transfer drive gear, the transfer driv-en gear shaft, and the companion flange, The transfer mechanism assembly is on the rear side ot the transmission. besidethe differential. The transfer shaft drive gear on the final driven gear drives the transfer shaft driven qear. power is transmit-ted to the rear differential via the transfer shaft and the Drooeller shaft.
Clutches
The four-speed automatic transmission uses hydraulically-actuated clutches to engage or disengage the transmission gears.When the hydraulic pressure is introduced into the clutch drum, the clutch piston moves. This presses the friction discs andsteel plates together, locking them so they don't slip. Power is then transmifted through the engaged clutch pack to its hu$mounted gear. When hydraulic pressure is bled from the clutch pack, the piston releases the friction discs and steel plates, andthey are free to slide past each other. This allows the gearto spin independently on its shaft, transmitting no power.
lst Clutch
The 1st clutch engages/disengages lst gear, and is located at the end ofthe mainshaft, just behind the end cover.The 1st clutch is supplied hydraulic pressure by its ATF feed pipe within the mainshaft.
lst-hold Clutch
The 1st-hold clutch engages/disengages 1st-hold or E position, and is located at the middle of the sub-shaft. The 1st-holdclutch is supplied hydraulic pressure by its ATF feed pipe within the sub-shaft.
2nd Clutch
The znd ciutch engages/disengages 2nd gear, and is located at the middle of the mainshaft. The 2nd clutch is joined back-to-back to the 4th clutch. The 2nd clutch is supplied hydraulic pressure through the mainshaft by a circuit connected to theinternal hydraulic circuit.

lst Gear (8. E or E positionl
In E, E, or D position, the optimum gear is selected from 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears, according to conditions such as
the balance between throttle opening (engine load) and vehicle speed.
1. Hydraulic pressure is applied to the 1st clutch, which rotates together with the mainshaft, and the mainshaft 1st gear
rotates.
2. Power is transmitted to the countershaft 1st gear. which drives the countershaft via the one-way clutch.
3. Power is transm itted to the final drive gear.which drives the final driven gear and the transfer shaft drive gea r (4WD).
4. The transfer shaft drive gear drives the transfer shaft and the transfer driven gear shaft (4WD).
NOTE:
o In @, @, @, or E position. hydraulic pressure is not applied to the 1st-hold clutch.. The illustration shows the 4WD automatic transmission; power flow of the 2WD automatic transmission is identicalto the 4WD except for parts related to the transfer assembly.

Description
Electronic Control System (cont'dl
Grade Logic Control System
How it works:
The PCM compares actual driving conditions with memorized driving conditions, based on the input from the vehicle speed
sensor, the throttle position sensor, the barometric pressure sensor ('98 model). the engine coolant temperature sensor, the
brake switch signal, and the shift lever position signal, to control shifting while the vehicle is ascending or descending a
slope, or reducing speed.

Description
Electronic Control System (cont'd)
Descending Control
When the PCM determines that the vehicle is going down a hill in E and @ positions ('97 - 98 models). and in @ posi-
tion {'99 - 00 models), the shitt-up speed from 3rd to 4th gear and from 2nd to 3rd (when the throttle is closed) becomes
faster than the set speed for flat road driving to widen the 3rd gear and 2nd gear driving areas. This, in combination with
engine braking from the deceleration lock-up, achieves smooth driving when the vehicle is descending. There are three
descending modes with different 3rd gear driving areas and 2nd gear driving areas according to the magnitude of a gradi-
ent stored in the PCM. When the vehicle is in 4th gear, and you are decelerating when you are applying the brakes on a
steep hill, the transmission will downshift to 3rd gear, When you accelerate, the transmission will then return to higher
gear.

Deceleration Control
When the vehicle goes around a corner, and needs to decelerate first and then accelerate, the PCM sets the data for deceleration
control to reduce the number of times the transmission shifts. When the vehicle is decelerating from speeds above 27 mph(4i| km,ih), the PCM shifts the transmission from 4th to 2nd earlier than normal to cope with upcoming acceleration,
