Select the proper 78 mm shim from the chan by
using the formula below.
Shim S€lection Formula:
From the measurements you made in steps 4 and 5:-1. Add distance @ (step 5) to distance @ (step 4).
-2. From this number. subtract 0.93 (which is the
midpoint of the flex range of the clutch housing
bearing spring washer).
-3. Take this number and compare it to the avail-
able shim sizes in the chart.
(For example)
A: 2.39 2.61
+ Bi O.22 - 0.93
= 2.61= 1.68
Try the 1.68 mm (0.0661 in) shim.

Starting is possible only in @ and @ positions. using a slide-type. neutral-safety switch.
Automatic Transaxle (A/T) Gear Position IndicatorThis indicator in the instrument panel shows which gear has been selected.
Transler Mochanism {4WD}
The transfer mechanism consists of the transfer shaft drive gear. the transfer shaft. the transfer drive gear, the transfer driv-en gear shaft, and the companion flange, The transfer mechanism assembly is on the rear side ot the transmission. besidethe differential. The transfer shaft drive gear on the final driven gear drives the transfer shaft driven qear. power is transmit-ted to the rear differential via the transfer shaft and the Drooeller shaft.
Clutches
The four-speed automatic transmission uses hydraulically-actuated clutches to engage or disengage the transmission gears.When the hydraulic pressure is introduced into the clutch drum, the clutch piston moves. This presses the friction discs andsteel plates together, locking them so they don't slip. Power is then transmifted through the engaged clutch pack to its hu$mounted gear. When hydraulic pressure is bled from the clutch pack, the piston releases the friction discs and steel plates, andthey are free to slide past each other. This allows the gearto spin independently on its shaft, transmitting no power.
lst Clutch
The 1st clutch engages/disengages lst gear, and is located at the end ofthe mainshaft, just behind the end cover.The 1st clutch is supplied hydraulic pressure by its ATF feed pipe within the mainshaft.
lst-hold Clutch
The 1st-hold clutch engages/disengages 1st-hold or E position, and is located at the middle of the sub-shaft. The 1st-holdclutch is supplied hydraulic pressure by its ATF feed pipe within the sub-shaft.
2nd Clutch
The znd ciutch engages/disengages 2nd gear, and is located at the middle of the mainshaft. The 2nd clutch is joined back-to-back to the 4th clutch. The 2nd clutch is supplied hydraulic pressure through the mainshaft by a circuit connected to theinternal hydraulic circuit.

Lock-up System (cont'dl
Lock-up Clutch
L Ooeration (clutch on)
With the lock-up clutch on, the fluid in the chamber between the torque convener cover and the lock-uD oiston is drainedoff, and the converter fluid exerts pressure through the piston against the torque converter cover, As a result, the conven-er turbine is locked to the converter cover. This bipasses the converter, placing the vehicle in direct drive.

Operation (clutch off)
With the lock-up clutch off, the fluid flows in the reverse of "clutch on." As a result, the lock-up piston moves away fromthe converter cover, and the torque converter lock-up is released.
