Stall test consists of determining maximum engine speed
obtained at full throttle in positions. This test
checks torque converter overrunning clutch operation,
and holding ability of transmission clutches and
brake.
Caution
During this test, make sure no stands in front
of, or behind, vehicle.
1.Check the transmission fluid level, fluid temperatu re and
coolant temperature.
lFluid level: At “HOT” position on dipstick

4. Apply parking and service brakes fully.

6. With selector lever in position, depress accelerator
pedal fully to read engine
rpm. Do not hold
throttle wide open any longer than is necessary to obtain
maximum engine rpm reading, and never longer
5 seconds at a time. If more than one stall test is required,
operate at approximately 1,000 in neutral
for 2 minutes to cool transmission fluid between te sts.

7.Place selector lever to position and perform test
by the same procedures above.
Stall Speed Above Specification in
If stall speed is higher than Specification, rear c lutch or overrun-
ning clutch is slipping. In this case, perform hydrau-
lic test to locate cause of slippage.
Stall Above Specification in “R”
If stall speed is higher than front clutch of trans-
axle or low-reverse brake is In this perform
hydraulic test to locate cause of slippage.
Stall Speed Above Specification and “R”
If stall speed is lower than insufficient engine
output or faulty torque converter is Check for en-
gine misfiring, ignition timing, valve clearance etc. If these
are good, torque converter is faulty..
