ISSUE: The torque converter pilot bosses were increased in diameter from 20 mm to 21 mm on 7/01/89 for the Festiva and on 8/07/89 for the Tracer.

ACTION: When replacing a torque converter in an early built unit, the adapter plate must also be changed to match the larger pilot boss on the new torque converter. Refer to the 1988/89 Festiva or Tracer Shop Manuals, Sections 17-01 and 17-30 respectively for service details.
