7C TROUBLESHOOTING
STEP 5 (OIL PRESSURE TEST)
This step determines line pressure, and governor pressure to check the hydraulic components and
for oil leakage.
Line Pressure Test
Preparation
1. Connect the SST to the line pressure output point.
2. Connect a tachometer to the engine.
3. Follow the test preparation procedure show in STEP 2 (STALL TEST).
Procedure
76G07C-030
1. Start the engine and verify that the idle speed is 950-5° rpm.
2. Shift the selector lever to D range.
3. Read the line pressure at idle.
4. Depress the brake pedal firmly with the left foot, and gradually depress the accelerator pedal with
the right foot.
5. Read the line pressure as soon as the engine speed becomes constant; then release the accelera-
tor pedal.
Caution
Steps 4 to 5 must be done within 5 seconds.
5. Shift the selector lever to N range and let the engine idle for one minute or more.
6. Read the line pressure at idle and engine stall speeds for each range in the same manner.

Inspection of Level
1. Apply the parking brake and block the wheels to
prevent the vehicle from rolling.
Note
Place the car on a flat, level surface.
2. Run the engine so that the automatic transaxle fluid
reaches operating temperature.
3. While the engine is idling, shift the select lever from
P to 1 and back again.
4. Let the engine idle.
5.Shift the select lever to P.

5. Turn locknut A by hand until it just touches the
spacer.
6. Tighten locknut B to the specified torque.
Tightening torque:
8—11 N-m (80—110 cm-kg, 69—95 in-lb)
7. Verify that there is a click at each range when shift-
ed from P «-» 1 range.
8. Check that the positions of the selector lever and
the indicator are exact.
9. Check that the button returns smoothly when used
to shift the selector.
10. If necessary, check the spring.
VACUUM DIAPHRAGM
Inspection
1. Remove the vacuum hose from the vacuum di-
aphragm. Check for ATF leakage. Replace if any
is found.
2. Remove the vacuum diaphragm.
3. Verify that the diaphragm rod moves when vacu-
um is applied.
Caution
When removing the diaphragm, do not drop
the rod into the oil pan.
76G07C-046
Vacuum diaphragm
Adjustment
Note
a) Excessive shift shocks and improper shift-
ing often indicate a vacuum diaphragm mal-
function.
b) Remove approximately 1.0 liter (1.1 US qt,
0.9 Imp qt) of ATF before removing the
vacuum diaphragm.
1. Remove the vacuum diaphragm, rod, and O-ring
from the transaxle case.
2. Measure the N dimension indicated in the figure
with the SST and a scale.
3. Select the diaphragm rod in accordance with the
table.
N dimension Applicable diaphragm
rod length
Below 25.4 mm (1.000 in) 29.5 mm (1.161 in)
25.4—25.9 mm (1.000-1.020 in) 30.0 mm (1.181 in)
25.9—26.4 mm (1.020-1.039 in) 30.5 mm (1.200 in)
26.4—26.9 mm
(1.039—1.059 in) 31.0 mm (1.220 in)

9. Install the under cover and side cover.
10. Lower the vehicle.
11. Add ATF, and with the engine idling, check the fluid
level.
12. Verify that there is no fluid leakage from the trans-
axle. (Refer to page 7C—25.)

REPLACEMENT OF SERVO PISTON RETURN
SPRING
1. Remove the control valve body. (Refer to replace-
ment of control valve.)
2. Loosen the anchor end-bolt and locknut.
3. Remove the band strut.
4. Compress the servo piston retainer with the SST.
5. Remove the snap ring with a screwdriver.
76G07C-053
76G07C-054
6. Remove the servo retainer, piston and spring by
gradually loosening the SST.
7. Replace the return spring. If the O-ring or the piston
seal is damaged, replace them.
8. Assemble the servo retainer, piston, and spring,
insert them into the case with the SST. Fit the snap
ring into the ring groove.
9. Install the band strut.
10. Tighten the anchor-end bolt to 12—15 N-m
(120—150 cm-kg, 104—130 in-lb), then back it
off two full turns. Tighten the locknut to 55—80
N m (5.6—8.2 m-kg, 41—59 ft-lb).
11. Install the control valve body, oil pan, etc. in the
reverse order of removal.
12. Adjust the fluid level, and check for fluid leaks.

INSPECTION AND REPAIR
PRECAUTION
(1) Several of the parts resemble each other; organize them so that they do not get mixed up.
(2) Clean each part with cleaning oil, clean out the oil holes and oil passages with compressed air,
and check that there are no obstructions.
(3) When using cleaning oil and compressed air, wear protective eyewear.
(4) If a clutch plate or brake band is replaced with a new one, soak it in ATF for 2 hours or more
before installing.
(5) Before assembly, apply ATF to all seal rings, rotating parts, and sliding parts.
(6) All seals, gaskets and roll pins must be replaced with new ones during assembly.
(7) Use petroleum jelly, not grease where required.
(8) When it is necessary to replace a bushing, replace the assembly which includes that bushing.
