CAUTION: If either end of the special tool is set over an area of the spring retainer which is unsupported by the return spring, the retainer may be damaged. Be sure the special tool is adjusted to have full contact with the spring retainer.





4. Compress the clutch return spring.





5. Remove the circlip. Then remove the special tool, spring retainer and return spring.





6. Wrap a shop rag around the clutch drum, and apply air pressure to the fluid passage to remove the piston. Place a finger tip on the other end while applying air pressure.

Reassembly

NOTE:
- Clean all parts thoroughly in solvent or carburetor cleaner, and dry with compressed air.
- Blow out all passages.
- Lubricate all parts with ATF before assembly.





1. Inspect the check valve; if it's loose, replace the piston.
2. Install a new O-ring on the clutch piston.





3. Be sure that the disc spring is securely staked.

NOTE: For 1st, 3rd and 4th clutches.





4. Install the piston in the clutch drum. Apply pressure and rotate to ensure proper seating.

NOTE: Lubricate the piston O-ring with ATF before installing.

CAUTION: Do not pinch O-ring by installing the piston with force.





5. Install the return spring and spring retainer, then position the circlip on the retainer.








6. Install the special tools as shown.

CAUTION: If either end of the special tool is set over an area of the spring retainer which is unsupported by the return spring, the retainer may be damaged. Be sure the special tool is adjusted to have full contact with the spring retainer.





7. Compress the clutch return spring.





8. Install the circlip.
9. Remove the special tools.





10. Install the disc spring.

NOTE:
- For 1st-hold and 2nd clutches.
- Install the disc spring in the direction shown.

11. Soak the clutch discs thoroughly in ATF for a minimum of 30 minutes.





12. Starting with a clutch plate, alternately install the clutch plates and discs. Install the clutch end plate with flat side toward the disc.

NOTE: Before installing the plates and discs, make sure the inside of the clutch drum is free of dirt or other foreign matter.





13. Install the snap ring,
14. Measure the clearance between the clutch end plate and top disc with a dial indicator. Zero the dial indicator with the clutch end plate lowered, and lift it up to the snap ring. The distance that the clutch end plate moves is the clearance between the clutch end plate and top disc.

NOTE: Measure at three locations.





End Plate-to-Top Disc Clearance:

15. If the clearance is not within the service limits, select a new clutch end plate from the following table.

NOTE: If the thickest clutch end plate is installed, but the clearance is still over the standard, replace the clutch discs and clutch plates.





Clutch End Plate

1ST-HOLD CLUTCH BEARING
Replacement

2. Replace the ATF guide plate.





3. Drive the new bearing into the housing using the special tools as shown.

TRANSMISSION HOUSING BEARINGS
Replacement





1. To remove the mainshaft, countershaft and secondary shaft bearings from the transmission housing, expand each snap ring with the snap ring pliers, then push the bearing out.

NOTE: Do not remove the snap rings unless it's necessary to clean the grooves in the housing.





2. Expand each snap ring with the snap ring pliers, insert the new bearing part-way into it, then release the pliers. Push the bearing down into the transmission until the ring snaps in place around it.

REVERSE IDLER GEAR
Installation





1. Install the reverse idler gear.





2. Set the spring in the reverse idler shaft. Push the spring in with the steel ball, then install the needle bearing.

NOTE: The steel ball is under spring pressure. Take care not to let it pop out.





3. Install the reverse idler shaft holder into the transmission housing, then tighten the bolts.

MANUAL VALVE DETENT SPRING
Replacement/Adjustment

NOTE: Select the appropriate manual valve detent spring when these parts are replaced:
- Manual Valve
- Manual Valve Detent Spring
- Manual Valve Lever of Control Shaft
