Install new nut on the band adjustment screw.





91. CAUTION: The intermediate servo must be installed prior to band adjustment.

Tighten the intermediate band adjustment screw. Then back off the screw exactly (2) turns and hold that position.





92. Tighten the intermediate band locknut.
1 Hold the intermediate band adjustment screw stationary.
2 Tighten the intermediate band locknut.





93. Tighten the center support screw.





94. Install the special tools into the transmission case.





95. Install the main control valve body and loosely install the screws.





96. Remove the special tools, and loosely install the screw.





97. Tighten the screws in the sequence shown.





98. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position, install the manual valve detent spring.





99. Install new O-ring seals on the solenoid body connector. Lubricate the O-ring seals with clean automatic transmission fluid.





100. CAUTION: Inspect the transmission case bore to make sure it is free of debris and not damaged. If damaged, transmission leak may occur.

Install the solenoid body. Tighten bolts in sequence shown.





101. Install the reverse servo. Tighten the bolts in the sequence shown in two stages.
^ Stage 1: Tighten bolts to 5 Nm (44 inch lbs.).
^ Stage 1: Tighten bolts to 11 Nm (8 ft. lbs.).

115. Remove the special tool.





116. CAUTION: Do not damage the fluid pump gear O-ring seal when installing torque converter.

CAUTION: Make sure the converter hub is fully engaged in the pump support and gear and rotates freely. Do not damage the hub seal.

CAUTION: If the torque converter slides out, the hub seal may be damaged.

Lubricate the converter hub with clean automatic transmission fluid.





117. WARNING: The torque converter can fall out if the transmission is tipped. Failure to follow these instructions may cause personal injury.

Using the special tools, install the torque converter by pushing and rotating.





118. Lubricate the torque converter pilot hub with multipurpose grease.





119. CAUTION: The special tool must be used to correctly align the adapter plate to the converter or transmission damage could occur.

Lubricate the O-ring seals with petroleum jelly to prevent damage to the O-ring seals.
Install the sensors.
123. Before installing transmission, make sure that the transmission cooling system (tube and cooler) have been thoroughly flushed. If contamination cannot be removed or correct flow cannot be obtained, install a new cooler and/or tubes.
