12) Install the torque converter clutch assembly.
(1) Install the oil pump shaft to the torque converter
clutch.
NOTE:
Make sure the clip fits securely in its groove.
(2) Holding the torque converter clutch assembly by
hand, carefully install it to the torque converter clutch
case. Be careful not to damage the bushing. Also avoid
undue contact between the oil pump shaft bushing and
stator shaft portion of the oil pump cover.
(3) Rotate the shaft lightly by hand to engage the
splines securely.
Dimension A:
2200 cc: 3.9—4.1 mm (0.154—0.161 in)
2500 cc: 7.9—8.1 mm (0.311—0.319 in)
13) Fill ATF and differential gear oil.

Differential gear oil capacity:
1.1—1.3(1.2—1.4 US qt, 1.0—1.1 Imp qt)
Automatic transmission fluid capacity:
2200 cc:
7.9—8.2(8.4—8.7 US qt, 7.0—7.2 Imp qt)
2500 cc:
9.5—9.8(10.0—10.3 US qt, 8.4—8.6 lmp qt)
Recommended fluid:
Dexron II or Dexron III type automatic transmis-
sion
NOTE:
After filling oil, insert the oil level gauge into the oil inlet.

4. Overall Transmission

Whine or growl (continuous or
intermittent)
While engine is running with/
without steering turned.Loosened installation of oil pump,
oil pump bracketRetighten.
*8
Abnormal inside of oil pump, hoseReplace oil pump, hose, if the
noise can be heard when running
as well as stand still.
Torque converter growl
air conditioner compression growlRemove power steering pulley
belt and confirm.
Creaking noise (intermittent)
While engine is running with
steering turned.Abnormal inside of gearboxReplace bad parts of gearbox.
Abnormal bearing for steering
shaftApply grease or replace.
*9
Generates when turning steering
wheel with brake (service or park-
ing) applied.If the noise goes off when brake
is released, it is normal.
*10
Vibration
While engine is running with/
without steering turned.
Too low engine speed at startAdjust and instruct customers.
Vane pump aerationFix wrong part.
Vent air.
Damaged valve in oil pump, gear-
boxReplace oil pump, bad parts of
gearbox.
Looseness of play of steering,
suspension partsRetighten.
*8 Oil pump makes whine or growl noise slightly due to its mechanism. Even if the noise can be heard when steering wheel
is turned at stand still there is no abnormal function in the system provided that the noise eliminates when the vehicle is
running.
*9 When stopping with service brake and/or parking brake applied, power steering can be operated easily due to its light
steering effort. If doing so, the disk rotates slightly and makes creaking noise. The noise is generated by creaking between
the disk and pads. If the noise goes off when the brake is released, there is no abnormal function in the system.
*10 There may be a little vibration around the steering devices when turning steering wheel at standstill, even though the com-
ponent parts are properly adjusted and have no defects.
Hydraulic systems are likely to generate this kind of vibration as well as working noise and fluid noise because of com-
bined conditions, i.e., road surface and tire surface, engine speed and turning speed of steering wheel, fluid temperature
and braking condition.
This phenomena does not indicate there is some abnormal function in the system.
The vibration can be known when steering wheel is turned repeatedly at various speeds from slow to rapid step by step
with parking brake applied on concrete road and in“D”range for automatic transmission vehicle.

Pay attention on service work.
Too many times use in extremely
cold weatherReplace.
Instruct customers.
*11 Although surface layer materials of rubber hoses have excellent weathering resistance, heat resistance and resistance for
low temperature brittleness, they are likely to be damaged chemically by brake fluid, battery electrolyte, engine oil and
automatic transmission fluid and their service lives are to be very shortened. It is very important to keep the hoses free
from before mentioned fluids and to wipe out immediately when the hoses are adhered with the fluids.
Since resistances for heat or low temperature brittleness are gradually declining according to time accumulation of hot or
cold conditions for the hoses and their service lives are shortening accordingly, it is necessary to perform careful inspec-
tion frequently when the vehicle is used in hot weather areas, cold weather area and/or a driving condition in which many
steering operations are required in short time. Particularly continuous work of relief valve over 5 seconds causes to reduce
service lives of the hoses, the oil pump, the fluid, etc. due to over heat.
So, avoid to keep this kind of condition when servicing as well as driving.
