TESTING
ROAD TEST 1. Before road testing, be certain that fluid level and condition, and control linkage adjustments have been checked and corrected as necessary. During test, transaxle should upshift and downshift at approximately the speeds shown in SHIFT SPEED SPECIFICATIONS table. All shifts may vary somewhat due to production tolerances or tire size. The important factor is the quality of the shifts. All shifts should be smooth, responsive and with no slippage or engine speed runaway. 2. Slippage or engine runaway in any gear usually indicates clutch or sprag problems. The slipping unit in a particular gear can usually be identified by noting transaxle operation in other selector positions and comparing which internal units are applied in those positions. See CLUTCH & BAND APPLICATIONS table.

3. This process of elimination can be used to detect any unit which slips, and to confirm proper operation of good units; however, the actual cause of the malfunction usually cannot be easily decided. Practically any condition can be caused by leaking hydraulic circuits or sticking valves. Therefore, unless an obvious condition exists, DO NOT disassemble transaxle until hydraulic pressure tests have been made. SHIFT SPEED SPECIFICATIONS Application Upshift Full Throttle 1-2 Shift 2-3 Shift Half Throttle 1-2 Shift 2-3 Shift Closed Throttle 1-2 Shift 2-3 Shift Downshift Full Throttle 3-2 Shift 2-1 Shift Closed Throttle 3-2 Shift 2-1 Shift HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TESTS 1. Before performing pressure tests, be sure that fluid level and condition have been checked and corrected as necessary. With engine at normal operating temperature, connect a tachometer to engine. 2. Connect pressure gauges to the following pressure test points: line pressure port, 1st clutch pressure port, 2nd clutch pressure port and 3rd clutch pressure port. See Fig. 5 . 3. Raise front of vehicle so front wheels are off ground and support with safety stands. Start and run engine at 2000 RPM. Place selector lever in the following positions: "P", "N", "D", "2" and "R". Note pressure readings at each selector lever position and compare readings to MAIN PRESSURES table. 4. If reading in "P" or "N" is not to specifications, check torque converter, oil pump pressure regulator or torque converter check valve. If reading in "D" (high gear) is not to specifications, check 3rd clutch. If reading in "D1" is not to specifications, check 1st clutch. If reading in "2" (manual), is not to specifications. Check 2nd clutch. If reading in "R" is not to specifications, check servo valve. NOTE: Allow engine to return to idle before changing selector positions.

50-60 25-27 15-20 5-10
5. Stop engine and remove pressure gauge connections from transaxle. Connect pressure gauge to throttle pressure port and disconnect throttle cable at carburetor. Start engine, place selector lever in "D" and run engine at 1000 RPM. Depress accelerator pedal so throttle control lever is in full throttle position and no pressure reading. Compare reading with MAIN PRESSURES table.

6. If throttle pressure reading in "D" is not to specifications, check throttle valve "A" or throttle modulator valve. 7. Stop engine and remove pressure gauge from throttle pressure port and reconnect throttle cable at carburetor. Place vehicle on a chassis dynamometer or raise and support front of vehicle on safety stands. Connect pressure gauge to governor pressure port. Start engine, place selector lever in "D" and increase engine speed to 38 MPH. Note pressure reading and compare it to MAIN PRESSURES table. 8. If governor pressure reading was not to specifications, check governor valve.

Disassemble temporarily assembled transaxle and install oil seal and correct snap ring to converter housing. Install differential and snap ring to converter housing. DIFFERENTIAL
Disassembly
1. With differential removed from torque converter housing, place differential in "V" blocks. Install both axle shafts, check backlash of both pinion gears. Backlash should be .002-.006" (.05-.15 mm). See Fig. 25 . If backlash is not to specifications, disassemble differential and install NEW thrust washers to obtain correct backlash. 2. Using a bearing puller, remove bearings from both sides of differential. Remove speedometer gear snap ring and speedometer gear. Remove bolts retaining ring gear to carrier and remove ring gear. 3. Drive out spring pin that retains pinion shaft and remove pinion shaft, pinion gears, side gears and thrust washers. Wash all components and check for excessive wear or damage. CAUTION: Ring gear bolts have left hand threads.
Reassembly
1. Install side gears in differential carrier. Install pinion gears and mesh with side gears. Install thrust

washers of equal and proper thickness to obtain correct backlash. See THRUST WASHER THICKNESSES table. Install pinion shaft while rotating gears to align holes in gears with hole in carrier. Align hole in pinion shaft with hole in carrier and install spring pin. See Fig. 26 . THRUST WASHER THICKNESSES Thrust Washer Thickness - In. (mm) 1 .028 (.7) 2 .031 (.8) 3 .035 (.9) 4 .040 (1.0) 2. With differential assembled with NEW thrust washers, again measure backlash. If backlash is still not to specifications, replace both pinion gears and recheck backlash. If still not to specifications, replace both side gears and recheck backlash. If still out of specifications, replace complete carrier assembly. 3. Install bearings to carrier. Install speedometer gear (with chamfer facing carrier) and install snap ring. Make sure snap ring ends DO NOT align with carrier bearing support. See Fig. 27 . 4.
