NOTE: Keep all foreign particles out of the transmis-
sion.
1. Bring the transmission up to operating temperature
(the radiator fan comes on) by driving the vehicle.
Park the vehicle on level ground. turn the engane
off. then remove the drain Plug.
NOTE: lf a cooler flusher is to be used, see page

Wlrile testing, be careful of the rotaling wheols.
Mako sure lifts, iacks, and safety stands ar€ placed
properly (see scction 11.
Before testing, be sure the transmission fluid is
filled to the proPer level.
4WD:
Raise the vehicle (see section 11.
2WD:
Raise the front of the vehicle, and make sure it is
securely supported. Set the parking brake, and block
both rear wheels securely.
Allow all four wheels {4WD) or front wheels (2wD}
to rotate freely.
Warm up the engine (the radiator fan comes on),
then stop it and connect the tachometer.
Connect the oil pressure gauges to each inspection
hole securely, and do not allow dust or other foreign
particles to enter the inspection holes.
