It 
is
desirable 
that

operations 
are 
carried 
out 
in 
the

Due 
to 
the 
differences 
of 
the
engine 
capacities 
the
specifications 
of

may 
be
different 
How

they 
do 
have 
common

thoroughly 
clean 
the

Inspecting 
oil 
condition
The 
condition 
of 
oil
sticking 
to 
the
level
gauge 
indicates 
whether 
to 
over
haul 
and
repair 
the 
transmission
or
look
for 
the
defective
part
If 
the
oil 
has 
deteriorated 
into
a
varnish 
like
quality 
it
causes 
the 
con
trol 
valve 
to
stick 
The 
blackened 
oil
gives 
the
proof 
of 
the 
burned 
clutch
brake 
band
etc 
In
these 
cases 
the
transmission 
must 
be
replaced
Notes

In

To
exactly 
locate
the
place 
of 
oil
leakage 
proceeds 
as 
follows
Place 
the
vehicle 
in 
a
pit 
and
by
sampling 
the
leaked 
oil 
examine
whe
ther
it 
is 
the
torq
le 
converter 
oil 
or
not
The
torque 
converter 
oil
assumes
color 
like 
red 
wine
when
shipped
from 
the
factory 
so 
it 
is
ea
ily 
distin
guished 
from
engine 
oil
or
gear 
oil
Cleanly 
wipe 
off 
the
leaking 
oil 
and
dust 
and 
detect
the
spot 
of 
oil
leakage
Use 
nonflammable
organic 
solvent
such 
as 
carbon
tetrachloride 
for
wip
ing
Raise 
the
oil
temperature 
by
op
erating 
the
engine 
and
shift 
the
lever
to 
0 
to
heighten 
the
oil
pressure
The
spot 
of 
oil
leakage 
will 
then
be
found
more
easily
Note
A
the 
oil
leakage 
from 
the
breather 
does 
not 
take
place
except 
when
running 
at
high
speed 
it 
is
impossible 
to 
locate
the
spot 
of
leakage 
with 
vehicle
stalled

Checking

adjusted
If 
the

low
the

does 
not
operate 
smoothly
and 
if
too
high 
a
strong

stage
and 
the
accelerator
pedal 
is
depressed
deeply 
the

should 
be
closed 
and 
the

should 
click
If
it
does 
not 
click 
it
indicates
a

Then 
check
each

with
the
testing
instruments
