COMPONENT PARTS
GENERAL NOTES
The instructions here are organized so that you work on only one component group at a time.
This will help avoid confusion from similar±looking parts of different subassemblies being on your work-
bench at the same time.
The component groups are inspected and repaired from the converter housing side.
As much as possible, complete the inspection, repair and assembly before proceeding to the next com-
ponent group. If a component group cannot be assembled because parts are being ordered, be sure
to keep all parts of that group in a separate container while proceeding with disassembly, inspection,
repair and assembly of other component groups.
Recommended fluid for the automatic transaxle:
DEXRON ® @@@@@: [g 2]
GENERAL CLEANING NOTES:
1. All disassembled parts should be washed clean and any fluid passages and holes blown through with
compressed air.
2. When using compressed air to dry parts, always aim away from yourself to prevent accidentally spray-
ing automatic transmission fluid or kerosene in your face.
3. The recommended automatic transaxle fluid or kerosene should be used for cleaning.
PARTS ARRANGEMENT:
1. After cleaning, the parts should be arranged in the correct order to allow efficient inspection, repairs,
and reassembly.
2. When disassembling a valve body, be sure to keep each valve together with the corresponding spring.
3. New brakes and clutches that are to be used for replacement must be soaked in transaxle fluid for at
least 15 minutes before assembly.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY:
1. All oil seal rings, clutch discs, clutch plates, rotating parts, and sliding surfaces should be coated with
transmission fluid prior to reassembly.
2. All gaskets and rubber O±rings should be replaced.
3. Make sure that the ends of a snap ring are not aligned with one of the cutouts and are installed in the
groove correctly.
4. If a worn bushing is to be replaced, the subassembly containing that bushing must be replaced.
5. Check thrust bearings and races for wear or damage. Replace if necessary.
6. Use petroleum jelly to keep parts in place.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1. GENERAL NOTES

Maintenance items may vary from country to country. Check the owner's manual supplement in which
the maintenance schedule is shown.

Every service item in the periodic maintenance schedule must be performed.

Periodic maintenance service must be performed according to whichever interval in the periodic main-
tenance schedule occurs first, the odometer reading (miles) or the time interval (months).

Maintenance service after the last period should be performed at the same interval as before unless
otherwise noted.

Failure to do even one item an cause the engine to run poorly and increase exhaust emissions.
2. WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID
Check that there is sufficient fluid in the tank.
3. ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL
Check that the coolant level is between the ºFULLº and ºLOWº lines on the see±through reservoir.
4. RADIATOR AND HOSES
(a) Check that the front of the radiator is clean and not blocked with leaves, dirt or bugs.
(b) Check the hoses for cracks, kinks, rot or loose connections.
5. BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
Check that the electrolyte level of all battery cells is between the upper and lower level lines on the case.
6. BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID LEVELS
(a) Check that the brake and clutch fluid levels are near the upper level line on the see±through reservoirs.
(b) Check that the clutch fluid level is with is ± 5 mm (0.20 in.). of the reservoir hem.
7. ENGINE DRIVE BELTS
Check drive belt for fraying, cracks, wear or oiliness.
8. ENGINE OIL LEVEL
Check the level on the dipstick with the engine turned off.
9. POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL

Check the level.

The level should be in the ºHOTº or ºCOLDº range depending on the fluid temperature.
10. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL
(a) Park the vehicle on a level surface.
(b) With the engine idling and the parking brake applied, shift the selector into all positions from ºPº to ºLº,
and then shift into ºPº position.
(c) Pull out the dipstick and wipe off the fluid with a clean rag. Re±insert the dipstick and check that the
fluid level is in the HOT range.
(d) Do this check with the fluid at normal driving temperature (70 ± 80°C, 158 ± 176°F).
HINT:
Wait until the engine cools down (approx. 30 min.) before checking the fluid level after extended driving at
high speeds, in hot weather, in heavy traffic or pulling a trailer.
11. EXHAUST SYSTEM
If any change in the sound of the exhaust or smell of the exhaust fumes is noticed, have the cause located
and corrected.
