REASSEMBLY
HINT:
Use high temperature-resistant grease to lubricate the bear-
ings and sliding parts when assembling the starter.
1. INSTALL INTERNAL GEAR AND PLANET CARRIER
SHAFT
(a) Apply grease to the internal gear touching the shock ab-
sorber and planetary gears.
(b) Align the hollow of the internal gear with the protrusion in-
side the shock absorber.
(c) Insert and turn the internal gear so that it interlocks with
the shock absorber.
(d) Apply turbine oil to the center bearing.
(e) Apply grease to the plate washer, and install it to the plan-
et carrier shaft.
(f) Install the planet carrier shaft to the shock absorber.
(g) Using snap ring pliers, install the plate washer and snap
ring.
2. INSTALL STARTER CLUTCH
(a) Apply grease to the bushing and spline of the starter
clutch stop collar.
(b) Place the starter clutch and stop collar on the planet carri-
er shaft.
(c) Apply grease to the snap ring, and install it to the planet
carrier shaft groove.
(d) Using a vise, compress the snap ring.

5. HYDRAULIC TEST
(a) Measure the line pressure.

(4) Start the engine and check the idle speed.
(5) Shift into the D position,step down strongly on the brake pedal with your left foot and while manip-
ulating the accelerator pedal with the right foot, measure the line pressure at the engine speeds
specified in the toble.
(6) In the same manner, do the test in the R position.

and retest it (see step 2).

INSPECTION
1. CHECK FLUID LEVEL
(a) Keep the vehicle level.
(b) With the engine stopped, check the fluid level in the oil
reservoir.
If necessary, add fluid.
Fluid: ATF DEXRON® II or III
HINT:
Check that the fluid level is within the HOT LEVEL range on the
reservoir cap dipstick. If the fluid is cold, check that it is within
the COLD LEVEL range.
(c) Start the engine and run it at idle.
(d) Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock several times to
boost fluid temperature.
Fluid temperature: 80°C (176°F)
(e) Check for foaming or emulsification.
If there is foaming or emulsification, bleed power steering sys-
tem. (See page SR-5)
(f) With the engine idling, measure the fluid level in the oil
reservoir.
(g) Stop the engine.
(h) Wait a few minutes and remeasure the fluid level in the oil
reservoir.
Maximum fluid level rise: 5 mm (0.20 in.)
If a problem is found, bleed power steering system.
(See page SR-5)
(i) Check the fluid level.

NOTICE:
Check that the valve of the SST is in the open position.
(c) Bleed the power steering system.
(d) Start the engine and run it at idle.
(e) Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock several times to
boost fluid temperature.
Fluid temperature: 80 °C (176 °F)
(f) With the engine idling, close the valve of the SST and ob-
serve the reading on the SST.

conds.

Do not let the fluid temperature become too high.
