16. Remove reverse clutch piston.
17. Remove priming valve from oil pump body by
lightly tapping with a drift through the hole at the
rear of oil pump. (Only if diagnosis requires removal
or if excessive dirt has passed through transmission.)
18. Pressure regulator and boost valve may be
removed by using a pari of wire cutters to remove the
retaining pin. Due to the difficulty of removing the
retaining pin, it is not recommended that the pres-
sure regulator valve and boost valve be disassembled
during overhaul, unless it was determined by oil
pressure checks to have been malfunctioning prior to
tear down.
19. Remove pressure regulator boost valve sleeve,
spring, pressure regulator valve and two washers. See

14. Remove the downshift timing valve plug retain-
ing pin and remove downshift timing valve plug.

valve.
16. Remove the l-2 accumulator valve retaining pin
and remove the l-2 accumulator valve plug, l-2 ac-
cumulator valve and spring.
17. A clean work area which is free of dirt and dust
should be used to inspect, clean and install the valves
in the valve body. Handle valve components with
clean hands and tools. Since most valve failures are
caused initially by dirt or other foreign matter pre-
venting a valve from functioning properly, a
thorough cleaning of all the components with a
cleaning solvent is essential. Do not use paraffin toclean out the valve body passages and valve bore.
Compressed air may be used to blow out the pas-
sages.18. Inspect each valve for free movement in its re-
spective bore in
t.he valve body. If necessary, use
crocus cloth to remove small burrs on a valve. Do
not remove the sharp edges of the valves as these
edges perform a cleaning action within the bore.
19. Inspect the valve springs for distortion or col-
lapsed coils. Replace the entire valve body assembly
if any parts are damaged.
20. Inspect the transfer plate for dents or distortion.
Replace transfer plate if necessary.
21. Reassemble the valves, springs, plugs and retain-
ing pins in their proper location and order into the
valve body using a liberal amount of transmission
fluid. See the spring data chart which includes the
spring identification sizes in the event springs have
been disarranged.
