28. Remove oil pan and oil pan gasket.
29. Check foreign materials in oil pan to help determine causes of
malfunction. If the A/T fluid is very dark, smells burned, or con-

cates varnish build up. Varnish can cause valves, servo, and
clutches to stick and can inhibit pump pressure.

If frictional material is detected, perform A/T fluid cooler
cleaning. Refer to AT-15, "
A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning" .
