Control Valve Body Clean





1. Clean the control valve body thoroughly in clean solvent.

IMPORTANT:
^ Do not use solvent in order to clean the solenoids, the neoprene seals, the composition clutch plates, or the thrust washers.
^ In the following steps, handle the parts carefully in order to avoid nicks and scratches.

2. Move the valves with a pick or a small screwdriver in order to dislodge any dirt or debris.
3. Use an air nozzle in order to dry the valve body and to blow out all of the passages.
4. Gently probe the small passages with a piece of identification tag wire or the equivalent.
