sensor (2).
5) Remove transmission range sensor (3).
6) Remove dropping resistor (4).
7) Remove breather hose (5).
8) Remove A/T fluid level gauge (1) and filler tube (2).
9) Remove vehicle speed sensor (1) (for speedometer), shift
cable bracket (2) and connector clamp bracket (3).
10) Remove oil pan and oil pan gasket.
11) Remove oil strainer assembly (1), and detach transmission
temperature sensor (2).
NOTE:
For removal of oil pan, do not turn transmission over
as this will contaminate valve body with foreign materi-
als in the bottom of oil pan.
When removing oil pan, tap around it lightly with a
plastic hammer. Do not force it off by using a screw-
driver or the like.

OIL CHANGE
1) Before changing or inspecting oil, be sure to stop engine and
lift vehicle horizontally.
2) With vehicle lifted up, check oil level and leakage. If leakage
exists, correct or repair it.
3) Drain old oil, tighten drain plug (3) after applying sealant to
its thread and fill new specified oil as shown below by speci-
fied amount (roughly up to level hole).
