1 Remove the square head plug L and install the SST.
2. Shift into P range and start the engine. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature, and adjust the idle speed if necessary.
Idle speed: 750 ± 50 rpm (with parking brake applied)
3. Adjust the locknuts as follows:





When the locknuts are rotated, line pressure is increased or decreased as shown. Adjust the locknuts to the correct position using the following procedure.
(1) Initially install the locknuts fully away from the throttle cam. (Loosen the cable all the way)
(2) Adjust the locknuts in a clockwise direction as viewed from the passenger side of the vehicle until the line pressure exceeds the specification.



(3) Adjust the locknuts in a counterclockwise direction until the line pressure decreases to the specification. Tighten the locknuts.

Adjustment pressure: 412 kPa (4.2 kg/cm2, 60 psi)

(4) Tighten the locknuts and verity that the line pressure is as specified.

Specified pressure: 402 - 422 kPa (4.1 - 4.3 kg/cm2, 58 - 61 psi)
