INSPECTION
PROCEDURE
1. INSPECT TORQUE CONVERTER ASSEMBLY
(a) Inspect the one-way clutch.
|
(1) Press on the serrations of the stator with a finger and rotate it. Check that it rotates smoothly when turned clockwise and locks when turned counterclockwise. If necessary, clean the converter and recheck the one-way clutch. Replace the converter if the one-way clutch still fails the check. |
|
|
(b) Determine the condition of the torque converter assembly. Text in Illustration
(1) Check that the following conditions are met:
If the results are not as specified, replace the torque converter assembly. HINT: The sample illustration shows approximately 0.25 liters (0.26 US qts, 0.22 Imp. qts) of ATF taken from a removed torque converter. |
|
(c) Replace the ATF in the torque converter.
(1) If the ATF is discolored and/or has foul odor, stir the ATF in the torque converter thoroughly and drain it.
|
(d) Avoid damaging the torque converter and the oil pump gear. (1) When any marks due to interference are found on the end of a bolt for the torque converter or on the bottom of a bolt hole, replace the bolt and torque converter. (2) All of the bolts should be the same length. (3) Make sure that no spring washers are missing. |
|
2. INSPECT DRIVE PLATE
|
(a) Set up a dial indicator and measure the runout of the 6 portions around the torque converter contact surfaces. Text in Illustration
Maximum runout: 0.30 mm (0.0118 in.) |
|
(b) Check the drive plate damage.
If the runout is not within the specification or the drive plate is damaged, replace the drive plate.
