PROCEDURE
INSTALL TORQUE CONVERTER ASSEMBLY
Mesh the splines of the input shaft and turbine runner.
Mesh the splines of the stator shaft and stator while turning torque converter.
Tech Tips
If the stator shaft splines are difficult to mesh with the stator splines, move the torque converter back approximately 10 mm (0.394 in.) and mesh the splines while rotating the torque converter.
Turn the torque converter to insert the key of the oil pump drive gear into the slot on the torque converter.
Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure dimension A between the transaxle fitting surface of the engine*1 and the converter clutch fitting surface of the drive plate*2. (#)
Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure dimension B shown in the illustration. Check that B is greater than A (measured in (#)).
| Standard dimension |
|---|
| A + 1.0 mm (0.0394 in.) or more |
Note
Be sure to subtract the thickness of the straightedge.
If the transaxle is installed to the engine with the torque converter not sufficiently inserted, the torque converter may be damaged.
INSTALL TRANSMISSION CONTROL CABLE SUPPORT
Install the transmission control cable support with the bolt.
INSTALL WIRE HARNESS CLAMP BRACKET
Install the bracket with the bolt.
INSTALL SPEEDOMETER DRIVEN HOLE COVER SUB-ASSEMBLY
Coat a new O-ring with ATF WS and install it to the hole cover.
Install the hole cover to the transaxle case with the bolt.
INSTALL NO. 1 TRANSMISSION CONTROL CABLE BRACKET
Install the No. 1 transmission control cable bracket with the 2 bolts.
INSTALL TRANSMISSION OIL FILLER TUBE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Coat a new O-ring with ATF WS and install it to the oil filler tube sub-assembly.
Install the oil filler tube to the automatic transaxle with the bolt.
Install the ATF dipstick.
INSTALL AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY
Apply clutch spline grease to the round of the crankshaft contact surface with the torque converter centerpiece.
