See Group 7, Cooling to drain engine cooling sys-
tem and remove coolant return extension (3.0 liter
engine only).The transaxle and torque converter must be
removed as an assembly; otherwise, the torque con-
verter drive plate, pump bushing or oil seal may be
damaged. The drive plate will not support a load;
therefore, none of the weight of the transaxle should
be allowed to rest on the drive plate during removal.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable.
(2) Remove air cleaner duct. Disconnect transaxle
shift linkage at manual valve lever (Fig. 34).
(3) Squeeze grommet clips and remove cable at
