The following pages (17-15-95, 17-15-106, and 17-15- 108) are issued to update the 1986 Taurus/Sable Shop Manual.
Section 17-15, Page 95
The exploded view has the incorrect component assembly order for the 2-3 shift (2)/2-3 TV modulator (3) and main regulator boost (20)/ main regulator (21) valves.
Section 17-15, Pages 106 and 108
The "NOTE" under Step 7 on each page states "clutch must turn clockwise". The clutch can be installed so it will rotate either clockwise or counterclockwise; however, the "NOTE" should read "must turn counterclockwise only".
For future reference, insert these corrected pages into the 1986 Taurus/Sable Shop Manual.
