(2) Trichloroethylene
(3) A neutral emulsion type detergent
OVERFILL LIMITER (TWO-WAY VALVE)
Set a hand vacuum pump at inlet side or outlet side; the valve
is good if, when a negative pressure (vacuum) is applied, air
flows after a slight negative pressure is initially maintained.

brakeA022116. REMOVAL OF REAR SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
(1) Supporting the rear suspension assembly with a trans-
mission jack, move it toward the rear (in the direction of
wtthe fuel tank).
c1(2) Gradually lower the transmission jack, avoiding contact
with the stabilizer bar and the propeller shaft.
Caution
1. Ensure that the propeller shaft does not bend
greatly.
2.Ensure that the liibro joint does not receive any
shock.
NOTEThe lowering of the rear suspension assembly from the
transmission jack requires three individuals due to the
amount of weight being handled (one on the differen-
tial, and one on either side of the lower arm).
(3) In order to protect the rear suspension assembly dust
shield, support the lower arm ball joint with a wooden
block.

Bl Kickdown brakeSHIFT PAlTERNS82 Low-reverse brake
OWC Oneway clutchTwo shift patterns are pre-stored in the control unit of this
transaxle. One is the power pattern (for more powerful
performance), and the other is the economy pattern (for
improved fuel consumption and quieter operation).
The driver can select and switch to the desired pattern by usingthe power/economy select switch on the center console.
The solid lines shown in these shift patterns indicate up-shifts,
and the broken lines indicate down-shifts. The reason why
there is a difference between the shift points for up-shifts and
for down-shifts is so that up-shifts and down-shifts will not
occur frequently when driving at a speed in the vicinity of the
shift point.
When the vehicle is stopped, there is a shift to
2nd gear in
order to obtain a suitable “creeping”, but when the accelerator
pedal is then depressed the vehicle starts off in
1st gear.
