Transmission
Cooler Flushing
@@ To prevent in;ury to face and eyos, atwayswear safety glasses ot a face shield when using thetlansmission flusher.
This procedure should be performed before reinstallingthe transmission.
2.
LCheck equipment for wear and cracks before using.Replace any worn or cracked components.
Using the measuring cup. fill the tank with 21 ounces{approximately 213 lull) ol biodegradable flushingfluid (J35944 - 20). Do not substitute with any otherfluid. Follow the handling procedure on the fluidcontaaner.
Secure the flusher filler cap, and pressurize theflusher with compressed air to 550 - 829 kpa (5.6 _
8.45 kgf/cm,, 80 - 120psi). The air line should beequipped with a water trap to ensure a dry air sys-tem.
Hang the flusher under the vehicle.
Attach the flusher discharge hose to the return lineof the transmission cooler using a clamp.
Connect the drain hose to the inlet line on the trans-mission cooler using a clamp.
IMPORTANT:
Securely clamp the opposite end ofthe drain hose to abucket or floor drain.

Turn on the water valve for 1O seconds. lf waterdoes not flow through the cooler, it is completelyplugged, cannot be flushed, and must be replaced.
Depress the trigger to mix the flushing fluid into thewater flow. Use the wire clip to hold the trigger down.
While flushing with the water and flushing fluid fortwo minutes, turn the air valve on for five secondsevery 15 - 20 seconds to create a surging action.AIR PRESSURE: MAX 845 kpa (8.45 kgf/cmr, t20 psi)
Turn the water valve off. Release the trigger, thenreverse the hoses to the cooler so you can flush inthe opposite direction. Repeat steps 8 through 10.
Release the trigger, and rinse the cooler with wate.for one minute.
Turn the water valve off, and the water supply off.
Turn the air valve on for two minutes, or until nomoisture is visible leaving the drain hose. Residualmoisture in the cooler or lines can damage thetransmission.
Remove the flusher from the cooler line. Attach thedrain hose to a container.
Install the transmission, and leave the drain hoseattached to the cooler line.

Fill the transmission with ATF, and run the engine
for 30 seconds or until approximately 0.951 {1.0 US
qt., 0.8 lmp qt.) is discharged.
Remove the drain hose, and reconnect the cooler
return hose to the transmission (see page 14-266).
Refill the transmission with ATF to the proper level
(see page l4'161 ).

TOOL MAINTENANCE
1. €mpty and rinse the flusher after each use. Fill the
flusher with water and pressurize it, then flush the
discharge line to ensure that the unit is clean.
2. lf discharge liquid does not foam, the orifice may be
blocked.
3. To clean, disconnect the large coupling nut from the
flusher.
