  2. 2
    Remove bolts securing torque converter to drive plate.
  3. 3
    Remove those bolts by turning crankshaft.
    This step is bold/emphasized in original text
  4. 4
    Plug up opening such as oil charging pipe hole, etc.

Installation

  1. 1
    Drive plate runout — Maximum allowable runout: 0.5 mm (0.020 in). If this runout is out of allowance, replace drive plate with ring gear.

  2. 2
    When connecting torque converter to transmission, measure distance 'A' to be certain that they are correctly assembled. Distance 'A': 23.5 mm (0.925 in) or more.

  3. 3
    Install converter to drive plate.
  4. 4
    Reinstall any part removed.
  5. 5
    After converter is installed to drive plate, rotate crankshaft several turns and check to be sure that transmission rotates freely without binding.

  7. 7
    Reinstall any part removed.
  8. 8
    Check fluid level in transmission.
  9. 9
    Move selector lever through all positions to be sure that transmission operates correctly. With parking brake applied, rotate engine at idling. Move selector lever through 'N' to 'D', to '2', to '1' and to 'R'. A slight shock should be felt by hand gripping selector each time transmission is shifted.
  10. 10
    Perform road test. — Refer to 'ROAD TESTING'.
