FSV

The

FSV
is
a

transfer
valve
which

shifts

gears
from

low

When

Ihe
vehicle
is

stopped
the

FSV
is

depressed
to

the

by
force
of

a

located
on
the

putting
the

FSV

When

SSV

The

SSV
is

a
transfer
valve

which

shifts

gears
from

2nd

When
the
vehicle
is

stopped
the
SSV

is

forced
toward

the

by
the

spring
and
is
in
the

It

is

so

design
d
however

that
the
FSV

can

decide
to
shift

either
to

Low
or

2nd

When

the

running
the

When

The

Con

the

being
rapjdly

unbalanced
the
force

depressing
the

SSV
toward

right
decreases
and

thus
the

is

depressed

both
the

line

ihe

and

the

16

is

slightly
Idwer

than
that
toward
the

right
which
is

applied
while

shifting

from

Consequently
the

Shifting

CHECKING
OIL
LEVEL

In

checking
the
automatic
transmis

sion

the
o
illevel
and
the
condition
of

oil
around
the
oil
level

gauge
should
be

examined
This
is

an

easy
and
effective

trouble

shooting

procedure
since

some

changes
in
oil
condition

are
often

linked
with

developed
troubles

For
instance

Lack
of
oil
causes

faulty
operation

by
making
the
clutches
and

brakes

slip
resulting
in

severe
wear

This
is
because
the
oil

pump
sucks

air

causing
oil

foaming
thus

rapidly

deteriorating
the
oil

quality
and

pro

ducing
sludge
and

varnish

Excessive
oil
is

also
bad
because
of

oil

foaming
caused

by
the

gears

stirring

up
the
oil

During
high
speed

driving

excessive

oil
in

the

transmission
often

blows
out

from
the
breather

The

of

oil

sticking
to

indicates
whether
to
over

haul
and

repair
the

or

look
for
the

If
the
oil
has
deteriorated

it
