Oil Pressure
Testing
lf the oil pressure warning light stays on with the enginerunning, check the engine oil level. It the oil level iscorrect:
Connect a tachometer.
Remove the oil pressure switch and install an oil pressure gauge.
Start the engine. Shut it off immediately if the gaugeregasters no oil pressure. Repair the problem beforecontinuing.
Allow the engine to reach operating temperature (fan
comes on at least twicel. The pressure should be:
Engine Oil Pressure:
At ldle: 70 kPa {O.7 kgficmr, tO psil
minimum
At 3,OOO rpm: 34O kPa (3.5 kgf/cmr, 50 psil
minimum
a lf oilpressure is within specifications, replace theengine oil pressure switch and recheck.
a lf oil pressure is NOT within specifications,rnspect the oil pump (see page g-11).

1. Remove the oil jet (see pages 8 4 or 8 5) and inspectit as follows.
a Make sure rhat a 1 .1 mm (O.04 in) diameter drillwillgo through the nozzle hole fl.2 mm (O.O5 in)diameter).
a Insert the other end of the same 1 .1 mm {0.O4in) drill into the oit intake (1.2 mm (0.05 in)diameter).
Make sure the check ball moves smoothly and hasa stroke of approximately 4.0 mm (O.16 in).a Check the oil jet operation with an air nozzle. ltshould take at least 2OO kPa 12.O kg|lcm2, 2gpsi) to unseat the check ball.
NOTE: Replace the oiljet assembly if the nozzleis damaged or bent.

A,,/C ComDressor Clutch Relav
When the ECM receives a demand for cooling from the air conditioning system, it delays the compressor from being
energized, and enriches the mixture to assure smooth transition to the A,/C mode.
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Control Solenoid Valve
When the engine coolanl temperature is above '154'F (68'C) and the air conditioner on. the ECM controls the EVAPpurge control solenoid valve which controls vacuum to the EVAP purge control canister.
Intake Air Eypass (lAB) Control Solenoid Valve*a
When the engine rpm is below 5,750 rpm, rhe IAB control solenoid valve is activated by a signal from the ECM, intake
air flows through the long intake path, then high torque is delivered. At speeds higher than 5,750 rpm, the solenoidvalve is deactivated by the ECM, and intake air flows through the short intake path in order to reduce the resistance in
airflow.
Sell-diagnosis Function lMalfunction Indicator Lamp {MlL)lWhen an abnormality occurs in a signal from a sensor, the ECM supplies ground for the MIL and stores the code in
erasable memory. When the ignition is initially turned on, the ECM supplies ground for the N4lL tor two seconds to
check the MIL bulb condition.
Two Driving Cycle Detection Method
To prevent false indications, the Two Driving Cycle Detection Method is used for the HO2S, fuel metering-related, idle
control system, ECT sensor, TWC and EVAP control system and other self-diagnostic functions, When an abnormality
occurs, the ECM stores it in its memory. When the same abnormality recurs after the ignition switch is turned OFFand ON (ll)again, the ECM informs the driver by lighting the MlL.
However, to ease troubleshooting, this function is cancelled when you shon the service check connector. The MIL will
then blink immediately when an abnormality occurs.

ECM Fail-safe/8ack.up F0nctions
1. Fail-sate Function
When an abnormality occurs in a signal from a sensor, the ECM ignores that signal and assumes a pre-programmed
value for that sensor that allows the enqine to continue to run.
2. Back-uo Function
When an abnormality occurs in the ECM itself, the fuel injectors are controlled by a back-up circuit independent of the
system in order to permit minimal driving.

Two air intake oaths are erovided in the intake manifold to allow the selection of the intake path most favofable for a given
engine speed.
Satjsfactory power performance is achieved by closing and opening the intake air bypass (lAB) control valves. High torque
at low RpM is acheived when the valves are closed, whereas high power at high RPM is achieved by when the valves are
opened.

The automatic transmission is a combination of a 3-element torque converter and triple-shalt electronically controlled
automatic transmission which provides 4 speeds forward and 1 speed reverse. The entire unit is positioned in line with
the engrne.
Torque Converter, Gears, and Clutches
The torque converter consists of a pump, turbine, and stator, assembled in sigle unit. The torque converter is connected to
the engine crankshaft so they turn torether as a unit as the engine turns. Around the outside of the torque convener is a
ring gear which meshes with the starter pinion when the engine is being started. The entire torque converter assembly
serves as a flywheel while transmitting power to the transmission mainshaft.
The transmission has three parallel shafts; the mainshaft. the countershaft, and the sub shaft. The mainshaft is in-line with
the engine crankshaft.
The mainshaft includes the 1st, and 2ndl4th clutches,and gear for 3rd, 2nd, 4th, reverse, and 1st. (3rd gear is integral with
the mainshaft, while reverse gear is integral with the 4th gear.)
The countershaft includes the 3rd clutch and gears for 3rd,2nd, 4th, reverse, 1st, and parking. Reverse and 4th gears can
be loched to the countershaft at its center,providing 4th gear or reverse, depending on which way the selector is moved.
The sub-shaft includes the 1st-hold clutch and gears fo 1st and 4th.
The gears on the mainshaft are in constant mesh with those on the countersahft and sub-shaft.When certain combinations
of gears in the transmission are engaged by clutches. power in transmitted from the mainshaft to the countershaft via the
sub-shaft to orovude oil, lo'1. E, E. and E.
Electronic Control
The electronic control svstem consists of the Transmission Control Module (TCM), sensors, and four solenoid valves.
Shilting and lock-up are electronically controlled for comfortable driving under all conditions.
The TCM is located below the dashboard, behind the lelt side kick panel on the driver's side.
Hydraulic Control
The valve bodies include the main valve body, the secondary valve body, the regulator valve body, the serbvo body, and
the lock-up valve body, through the respective separator plates, They are bolted to the torque converter housing,
The main valve body contains the manual valve, the 1-2 shift valve, the 2-3 shitt valve, the Clutch Pressure Control
lCPC) valve, the 4th exhaust valve, the reliel valve, and the ATF pump gears.
The secondary valve body contains the 4-3 kick-down valve, the 3-2 kick-down valve, the 2-3 orifice control valve, the
3-4 shift valve, the orilice control valve, the modulator valve, and the servo control valve.
The regulator valve body contains the pressure regulator valve, the lock-up control valve, the torque converter check
valve, and the cooler check valve.
The servo body contains the servo valve, which is integrated with shift fork shaft, the throttle valve B, and the accumula-
tors.
The lock-up valve body contains the lock-up shift valve and the lock-up timing B valve, and is bolted to the regulator valve
ooqy.
Fluid from the regulator passes through the manual valve to the various control valves.
Shift Control Mechanism
Input to the TCM from various sensors located throughout the car determines which shift control solenoid valve should
be activated. Activating a shitt control solenoid valve changes modulator pressure, causing a shift valve to move. This
pressurizes a line to one ol the clutches, engaging that clutch and its corresponding gear.
Lock-uD Mechanism
In @ position, in 2nd, 3rd and 4th, and @ position in 3rd, pressurized fluid can be drained lrom the back oI the tor-
que converter through a fluid passage, causing the lock-up piston to be held against the torque converter cover. As this
takes place, the mainshaft rotates at the same speed as the engine crankshaft. Together with hydraulic control, the TCM
optimizes the timing of the lock-up mechanism.
The lock-up valves controlthe range of lock-up according to lock-up control solenoid valves A and B, and throttle valve B.
When lock-up control solenoid valves A and B activate, modulator pressure changes. Lock-up control solenoid valves
A and B are mounted on the torque converter housing, and are controlled by the TCM.

\E Position Deceleration
The power flow when decelerating is as follows;
1. Rolling resistance from the road surface goes through the front wheels to the final drive gear, then to the sub-shaft'lst gear via the 4th gear, and 1st-hold clutch which is applied during decelerarion.
2, The one-way clutch disengages at this time because the application of torque is reversed.
3. The counterforce conveyed to the countershaft 4th gear turns the sub-shaft 4th gear via the mainshaft 4th gear.At this time, since hydraulic pressure is also applied to the 1st clutch, counterforce is also transmitted to the main-shatt. As a.esult. engine braking can be obtained with 1st gear.
