6. Control Valve Body
The control valve is composed of parts which are accu-
rately machined to a high degree and should be handled
carefully during disassembly and assembly. As these parts
are similar in shape, they should be arranged in neat order
on a table after disassembly so that they can be easily
installed to their original positions. Spring loaded parts
should be also handled carefully, as springs may jump out
of place when the parts are disassembled or removed.
Extreme care should be taken so as not to drop valves on
the floor. Before assembling, the parts and valves should
be dipped in a container filled with the ATF. Make sure that
the valves are clean and free from any foreign material
before assembly. Torque specifications should also be
observed.

During ordinary servicing, clean the control valve bodies in
this condition, without further disassembly.
In the event of a seized clutch or other problem, disas-
semble the control valve bodies further, and clean the com-
ponent parts.

2) Selection of oil pump components (rotor, vanes, control
piston and cam ring)
(1) Using a micrometer, measure the height of the
rotor, vanes, control piston and cam ring in at least four
positions. (Measure the height at one place for each of
the nine vanes.)
NOTE:
Remove the control piston seals when measuring.
Remove the friction ring from the cam ring when mea-
suring.

(3) Make sure that the clearances are within the speci-
fied wear limits. If the wear limit is exceeded, select
pump components so that the standard clearance can
be obtained.
