DISASSEMBLYN21WMCaution
%T1. Since the automatic transaxle is made of particularly
~_,high precision parts, be very careful when handling
them during disassembly and reassembly so that they
are not scratched.
2. Spread a rubber mat on the workbench and keep it
clean.3. Do not use cotton gloves or cloth rags during dis-
assembly. If they are needed, use nylon cloth or paper
towels.
4. Clean all disassembled parts. Clean metal
parts with
normal cleanser and completely dry with air.
5. Clean the clutch disc, resin thrust plate and rubber
parts with ATF (automatic transmission fluid) and do
not get any dirt on them.
6. If the transaxle itself is damaged, disassemble and
clean the cooler system also.
1. Remove the torque converter.
2. Mount the dial gauge on the transaxle case and measure
the end play of the input shaft.
3. Remove the brackets.
4. Remove the oil level gauge and oil level gauge guide.
1:5. Remove the pulse generator A and B.
6.First remove the manual control lever and then remove theinhibitor switch.
7. Remove the speedometer driven gear assembly.

13. Using the special tool, press-fit the outer race in the
transaxle case.
4. Install the front output shaft assembly
.
5.Position the solder approx. 10 mm (.40 in.) long by 1.6 mm
(.06 in.) in diameter in the front bearing retainer in the
position shown in the figure and then install the outer race

the specified torque
.
Front bearing retainer mounting bolts:
43-55 Nm (32-39
ft.lbs.)7. Loosen the bolts and remove the front bearing retainer
.
8.Remove the outer race from the front bearing retainer and
remove the solder. If the solder does not break, perform
the work in steps
5-8 with large diameter solder. Measure
the thickness of the crushed solder with a micrometer and
select a spacer with the correct thickness so the pre-load
reaches the standard value
.
Standard value:
0.055-0.115 mm (.002-.005 in.)
9.Install the spacer selected in the previous step and the
outer race in the front bearing retainer
.
10. First install the front bearing retainer and apply sealant to
the bolts and then tighten with the specified torque

20. Remove the outer race from the output bearing retainer
and remove the solder. If the solder does not break,
perform the work in steps
17-20 with large diameter
solder. Measure the thickness of the crushed solder with a
micrometer and select a spacer with the correct thickness
so that the pre-load reaches the standard value.
Standard value:
0.075-0.135 mm (.0030--0053 in.)
21. Install the spacer and the outer race selected in the
previous step in the output bearing retainer.
