External Parts

  1. Using ST, install ATF filter to transmission case. Calculate ATF filter torque specifications using the following formula.

    T2 = L2 /(T1 + T2 ) X T1

    T1 : 14+/-2 N.m (1.4+/-0.2 kg-m, 10.1+/-1.4 ft-lb) [Required torque setting]

    T2 : Tightening torque

    L1 : ST length 0.078 m (3.07 in)

    L2 : Torque wrench length

    CAUTION: Align ST with torque wrench while tightening ATF filter.

  11. Install the torque converter clutch assembly.
    1. Install the oil pump shaft to the torque converter clutch.
      NOTE: Make sure the clip fits securely in its groove.
    2. Holding the torque converter clutch assembly by hand, carefully install it to the torque converter clutch case. Be careful not to damage the bushing. Also avoid undue contact between the oil pump shaft bushing and stator shaft portion of the oil pump cover.
    3. Rotate the shaft lightly by hand to engage the splines securely.

      Dimension A:  2.7 - 2.9 mm (0.106 - 0.144 in)
