INSPECT TORQUE CONVERTER ASSEMBLY
Inspect the one-way clutch.
Set SST into the inner race of the one-way clutch.
Install SST so that it fits in the notch of the torque converter assembly hub and the outer race of the one-way clutch.

Inspect the torque converter assembly.
If any of the following problems are present, replace the torque converter assembly.
Malfunction:
A metallic sound is emitted from the torque converter assembly during the stall test or when the shift lever is moved to N.
The one-way clutch turns smoothly or turns with difficulty in both directions.
The amount of powder in the ATF is more than the sample shown in the illustration (refer to the sample).
Tech Tips
The sample shows approximately 0.025 liters (0.026 US qts., 0.022 Imp. qts.) of ATF in a Petri dish, which has been taken from the removed torque converter assembly.
Replace the ATF in the torque converter assembly.
Tech Tips
If the ATF is discolored or has a foul odor, stir the ATF in the torque converter assembly and drain it before replacing the ATF.
Clean and check the oil cooler and oil pipe line.
Tech Tips
If the torque converter assembly is inspected or the ATF is replaced, it is necessary to clean the oil cooler and oil pipe line.
Apply compressed air of 196 kPa (2.0 kgf/ cm2, 28 psi) into the inlet hose.
If a large amount of powder is found in the ATF, add new ATF using a bucket pump and clean the oil cooler and oil pipe line again.
If the ATF is cloudy, inspect the oil cooler.
| *a | Correct |
| *b | Incorrect |
| *c | Bottom is damaged |
Prevent deformation of the torque converter assembly and damage to the oil pump gear.
Note
Make sure that all of the bolts are the same length and that the specified bolts are used.
Tech Tips
If there is any damage to the tip of a bolt for the torque converter assembly or to the bottom of a bolt hole, replace the bolt and torque converter assembly.
INSTALL TORQUE CONVERTER ASSEMBLY
Engage the splines of the input shaft and turbine runner.
Engage the splines of the stator shaft and the stator while turning the torque converter assembly.
Tech Tips
If the stator shaft splines are difficult to engage with the stator splines, move the torque converter assembly back approximately 10 mm and engage the splines while rotating the torque converter assembly.
Turn the torque converter assembly to insert the key of the oil pump drive gear into the groove of the torque converter assembly.
Clean the torque converter assembly set bolt holes.
| *a | Engine Surface |
| *b | Drive Plate Surface |
Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure dimension A between the transaxle contact surface of the engine *a and the torque converter assembly contact surface of the drive plate *b.
Note
Make sure to deduct the thickness of the straightedge.
Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure dimension B shown in the illustration and check that dimension B is more than dimension A, which was measured in the previous step.
| Standard |
|---|
| A + 1 mm (0.0394 in.) or more |
Note
Make sure to deduct the thickness of the straightedge.
If the automatic transaxle assembly is installed to the engine with the torque converter assembly not sufficiently inserted, the torque converter assembly may be damaged.
Do not include the thickness of the set block.
INSTALL SPEEDOMETER DRIVEN HOLE COVER SUB-ASSEMBLY
Coat a new O-ring with ATF and install it to the speedometer driven hole cover sub-assembly.
Install the speedometer driven hole cover sub-assembly to the automatic transaxle assembly with the bolt.
INSTALL TRANSMISSION OIL FILLER TUBE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Coat a new O-ring with ATF and install it to the transmission oil filler tube sub-assembly.
Install the transmission oil filler tube sub-assembly to the automatic transaxle assembly with the bolt.
Install the transmission oil level gauge sub-assembly to the transmission oil filler tube sub-assembly.
INSTALL WIRE HARNESS CLAMP BRACKET
Install the 2 wire harness clamp brackets to the automatic transaxle assembly with the 2 bolts.
INSTALL NO. 2 TRANSMISSION CONTROL CABLE BRACKET
Install the No. 2 transmission control cable bracket to the automatic transaxle assembly with the bolt.
INSTALL NO. 1 TRANSMISSION CONTROL CABLE BRACKET
Install the No. 1 transmission control cable bracket to the automatic transaxle assembly with the 2 bolts.
INSTALL NO. 1 FLEXIBLE HOSE CLAMP
Install the No. 1 flexible hose clamp to the No. 1 transmission control cable bracket with the bolt.
INSTALL FRONT ENGINE MOUNTING BRACKET
Install the front engine mounting bracket to the automatic transaxle assembly with the 3 bolts.
INSTALL AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY
| *1 | Crankshaft |
| *2 | Torque Converter Assembly Centerpiece |
Apply clutch spline grease to the surface of the crankshaft that contacts the torque converter assembly centerpiece.

| About 1 g (0.0353 oz.) |
While keeping the engine and automatic transaxle assembly horizontal, align the knock pins with the holes in the automatic transaxle assembly and install the 9 bolts shown in the illustration.
Note
Confirm that the 2 knock pins are installed to the transaxle contact surface of the engine cylinder block before installing the automatic transaxle assembly.
Do not forcibly pry on the automatic transaxle assembly.
Check that the torque converter assembly rotates.
