Low-Reverse Clutch Pressure Test

Remove pressure tap plug and install pressure gauge in low-reverse clutch pressure tap. See Fig 1 .
Place gearshift lever in "L" position. Allowing front wheels to rotate, accelerate until vehicle speed indicates 20 MPH.
Low-reverse clutch pressure should be 115-145 psi (8.0-10.1 kg/cm² ). This pressure test checks oil pump output, pressure regulation and low-reverse clutch hydraulic circuit and shift schedule. Remove pressure gauge. Install and tighten pressure tap plug to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS .
