72. Check overdrive servo travel. Install test spring from Overdrive Servo Rod Tool T86P-70023-B in case.
CAUTION: The test spring from the overdrive servo rod tool is plain in color and has a shorter free height than the operational spring. Extreme care must be used not to assemble the transaxle using the test spring.
73. Install overdrive servo piston and overdrive servo rod into case.
74. Install Overdrive Servo Rod Tool T86P-70023-B and secure using servo cover bolts. Tighten bolts to 9-12 Nm (80-106 inch lbs.). Install Dial Indicator With Bracketry.
75. Tighten center screw on tool to 1.13 Nm (10 inch lbs.). Zero dial indicator.
76. Back off center screw until piston movement stops and read dial indicator. The reading should be 1.8-3.8 mm (0.070-0.149 inch). If measurement does not meet specifications, refer to Overdrive Piston Rod Selection Chart to determine which overdrive servo rod to install.
Overdrive Piston Rod Selection Chart
Overdrive Servo Rod Length: Number of Grooves (At Tip)
99.33 mm (3.91 inch): 0
98.05 mm (3.86 inch): 1
96.78 mm (3.81 inch): 2
77. If overdrive servo travel was incorrect, install new overdrive servo rod and repeat this procedure to verify amount of piston travel. If within specifications, remove tool and test spring.
CAUTION: Test spring for overdrive servo tool is plain colored. DO NOT assemble the transaxle using the test spring or transaxle may not operate properly.
78. Install overdrive servo cover, piston, rod and spring assembly. Tighten retaining bolts to 9-12 Nm (80-106 inch lbs.).
Transmission Test Plate:
79. Perform air pressure checks using Transmission Test Plate T94P-77001-EH and Test Plate Mounting Screws T82P-7006-C under Diagnosis and Testing. After pressure checks have been performed, remove tool.
WARNING: Wear safety glasses while performing this procedure to prevent personal injury.
NOTE: When applying regulated 276 kPa (40 psi) air pressure to the appropriate passage, a dull thud should be heard when the clutch or band applies. There should be no hissing sound when clutch or band is applied. Cover the vent hole in the test plate with a clean, lint-free shop towel to prevent spray when air is applied. Plugging vent hole during testing will result in inaccurate results.
80. Install four new Teflon pump shaft rear seals and pump shaft front seals on pump shaft. Install pump shaft.
CAUTION: Seals must be lapped correctly or internal leakage will occur.
81. Connect manual control valve actuating rod link to manual valve detent lever.
NOTE: Crimped end of link goes through detent lever.
82. Start pump and main control valve body over pump shaft and connect manual control valve actuating rod to manual valve. Push main control valve body down until seated.
