TRANSMISSION K Procedure 1. Place wooden blocks under the transmission at the con- verter housing and the extension housing positions. 2. Remove the oil pan and gasket. Examine any material found in the pan or on the magnet to determine the condition of the transmission. Clutch facing material . . . . . Drive plate and brake band wear Steel (magnetic) . . . . . . . . . . Bearing, gear, and driven plate wear Aluminum (nonmagnetic) . . Bushings or cast alumi- num parts wear If large amounts of material are found, replace the torque converter and carefully check the transmission for the cause. 3. Install the oil pan and gasket with a few bolts to protect the valve body. 4. Remove the vacuum diaphragm, lockup control solenoid valve, vehicle speed pulse generator, and O-rings. 5. Remove the parwneutral switch. 6. Remove the speedometer driven gear from the exten- sion housing. 7. Remove the O-ring from the speedometer driven gear. Gartner Banana

K TRANSMISSION 8. Remove the torque converter, and immediately turn it so that the hole faces upward. This will help to keep any re- maining fluid from spilling. 9. Assemble the SST as shown. 10. Mount the transmission onto the SST. 11. Remove the oil pan and gasket. 12. Remove the magnets. 13. Disconnect the solenoid valve connectors. 14. Remove the harnesses from the bracket.

TRANSMISSION K 41. Remove the oil distributor. 42. Remove the bearing. TORQUE CONVERTER Inspection 1. Check the outside of the converter for damage and cracks, and replace the torque converter if there is any problem. 2. Check for rust on the pilot hub or on the boss, and re- move the rust completely if there is any. Washing inside the converter 1. Drain any ATF remaining in the converter. 2. Pour in solvent (0.5 L, 0.5 US qt, 0.4 Imp qt). 3. Shake the converter to clean the inside. Pour out the sol- vent. 4. Clean the inside of the converter with compressed air so that the inside is completely empty. 5. Pour in ATF. 6. Shake the converter to clean the inside. Pour out the ATF. Gartner Banana

K TRANSMISSION 8. Carefully install the oil pump cover onto the oil pump housing. 9. Install the SST (pins) for alignment. J 10. Tighten the bolts evenly and gradually in the order shown. Tightening torque: 5.9-7.8 N-m (6040 kgf-cm, 53-69 in-lbf) 11. Remove the SST (pins). 12. Apply ATF to a new O-ring, and install it onto the input shaft. 13. Apply ATF to the input shaft, and install it into the oil Pump. 14. Apply petroleum jelly to the bearing, and install it onto the oil pump. Bearing race outer diameter: 70.0mm (2.756 in) 15. Apply ATF to the sensing rotor splines, and install the sensing rotor onto the input shaft. 16. Install the snap ring on the input shaft with snap ring pli- ers. 17. Set the oil pump on the torque converter, and verify that the pump turns smoothly. Gartner Banana
