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.

IO.RING
Remove the in-line filter from the discharge side and

The fluid orifice is located behind the filter.
Clean it with the pick stored in the bottom of the

Bleeding
CAUNON:
. Do not spill brake tluid on the vehicle. it may damage
the paint; if brake fluid does contaqt th€ paint, wash
it otf immodiately with water.
. Maks sure no dirt oy other forsign matter is allowsd
to contaminate the brake fluid.
NOTE:
. Do not reuse the drained fluid.
. Always use Genuine Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid. Using
a non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and
decrease the life of the svstem.
. The reservoir on the master cylinder must be at the
MAX (upper) level mark at the start of bleeding pro-
cedure and checked after bleeding each brake caliper
and wheel cylinder. Add fluid as required.
1, Make sure the brake fluid level in the reservoir is at
the MAX (uDDer) level line.

Have someone slowly pump the brake pedal several
times, then apply steady pressu.e.
Loosen the brake bleed screw to allow air to escape
from the system. Then tighten the bleed screw
securely.
Repeat the procedure for each wheel in the sequence
shown below until air bubbles no longer appear in
the tluid.
Refill the reservoir on the master cvlinder to the
MAX (upper) level line.

Disassembly/Reassembly
. Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brake assemblies.
. Use an OSHA approved vacuum cleaner to avoid breathing brake dust.
. Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping ability.
. When reusing the pads, always reinstallthe brake pads in their original positions to prevent loss ol braking efficiency.
CAUTION:
. Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid does contact the paint, wash it off imme-
diatelY with water.
NOTEI
. To prevent spills, cover the hose joints with rags or shop towels.
. Clean all pans in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
. Before reassembling, check that all parts are free of dust and other foreign particles.
. Replace parts with new ones whenever specified to do so.
. Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter is allowed to contaminate the brake fluid.
. Do not reuse the drained fluid.
. Always use Genuine Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid. Using a non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and decrease the
life of the system.
. Coat the piston, piston seal, and caliper bore with clean brake fluid.
. ReDlace all rubber oarts with new ones whenever disassembled.
. After installing the front brake caliper do the following.- Check for leaks at hose and line joints and connections, and retighten if necessary.- Check the brake hoses for interference and twistinq.

15. Pack adhesive into the cartridge without air pockets
to ensure continuous delivery, Put the canridge in a
caulking gun, and run a bead of adhesive around
the edge of the quarter glass as shown.
NOTE:
. lf the old quarter glass is to be reinstalled, peel
the separator off the butyl tape after applying the

in step 9, and set it down on the adhesive. Lightly
push on the quaner glass until its edges are fully
seated on the adhesive all the way around.
NOTE: Do not open or close the doors until the
adhesive is drv.
Scrape or wipe the excess adhesive off with a putty
knife or towel,
NOTE: To remove adhesive from a painted surface
or the quarter glass, wipe with a soft shop towel
dampened with alcohol.
Let the adhesive dry for at least one hour. then
spray water over the quarter glass and check for
leaks. Mark the leaking areas, let the quarter glass
dry, then seal with sealant.
NOTE: Let the vehicle stand for at least four hours
after quarter glass installation. lf the vehicle has to
be used within the first four hours, it must be driven
slowly.
Reinstall all remaining removed parts.
NOTE: Advise the customer not to do the following
things for two to three days:
. Slam the doors with all the windows rolled up.
. Twist the body excessively (such as when going
in and out of driveways at an angle or driving
over rough, uneven roads).

T€sting and Repairs
. Do not use wires or harnesses with broken insulation.
Replace them or repair them by wrapping the break
with electricaltape.
. After installing parts, make sure that no wires are
pinched under them.
. When using electrical test equipment, follow the
manufacturer's instructions and those described in
this manual.
. lf possible, insert the probe of the tester from the
wire side (except waterproof connector).
. Seat grommets in their grooves properly.
. Use a probe with a tapered tip.
