FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT, FUEL FILTER AND FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY
3. Separate the fuel filter and fuel level sensor unit.
a. Fit a used O-ring into space between fuel level sensor unit and
fuel filter. Undo catches and separate fuel level sensor unit and
fuel filter.
●For reference when reassembling, put a mating mark on outer
edges of fuel level sensor unit and fuel filter with some means
which cannot be erased by fuel.
b. Insert blade end screwdriver to the gap between the fuel filter
and fuel level sensor unit to separate them.
CAUTION:
Put cloth or similar one on the edge of screwdriver not to
damage the inserted portion.
4. Remove pressure regulator from fuel filter.
a. Open and remove the clip.
b. Pull the pressure regulator straight out during removal.
CAUTION:
●Avoid impacts such as falling during removal.
●Do not disassemble or adjust.
ASSEMBLY
Install in the reverse order of removal paying attention to the following.
●Install the fuel filter and fuel pump with the tabs aligned, Make sure a click sound of secure engagement is
heard.
●Securely connect the harness connector of the fuel pump.
●Install the pressure regulator O-ring as follows.
CAUTION:
●When replacing, always use a new O-ring.
●Handle it with bare hands. (Do not use gloves.)
●Visually check the O-ring, mounting parts and mating parts for foreign materials and flaws.
●Before installing, apply new engine oil.
●To avid damage, do not apply an excessive force (pulling or starching).
●Install the pressure regulator as follows.
1. Insert the clip to the groove of the pressure regulator.
2. With the clip installed, insert the pressure regulator straight by
matching the fuel filter protrusion and the clip notch.
3. Make sure that the fuel filter protrusion and clip notch are
securely engaged.

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
CautionECS008BM
●Do not reuse transaxle oil, once it has been drained.
●Check oil level or replace oil with vehicle on level ground.
●During removal or installation, keep inside of transaxle clear of dust or dirt.
●Check for the correct installation status prior to removal or disassembly. If mating marks are required, be
certain they do not interfere with the function of the parts they are applied to.
●In principle, tighten bolts or nuts gradually in several steps working diagonally from inside to outside. If
tightening sequence is specified, observe it.
●Be careful not to damage sliding surfaces and mating surfaces.

it protrudes from the case end equal to dimension A shown in
the figure.
CAUTION:
●When installing oil seals, apply multi-purpose grease to oil seal lips.
●Oil seals are not reusable. Never reuse them.
2. Install all parts in reverse order of removal and check oil level after installation.

OVERALL SYSTEM
Control Valve
ECS004QG
FUNCTION OF CONTROL VALVES
Valve name Function
Pressure regulator valve, plug
and sleeveRegulates oil discharged from the oil pump to provide optimum line pressure for all driving condi-
tions.
Pressure modifier valve and
sleeveUsed as a signal supplementary valve to the pressure regulator valve. Regulates pressure-modi-
fier pressure (signal pressure) which controls optimum line pressure for all driving conditions.
Pilot valve Regulates line pressure to maintain a constant pilot pressure level which controls lock-up mecha-
nism, overrun clutch, shift timing.
Accumulator control valve Regulates accumulator back-pressure to pressure suited to driving conditions.
Manual valve Directs line pressure to oil circuits corresponding to select positions.
Hydraulic pressure drains when the shift lever is in Neutral.
Shift valve A Simultaneously switches four oil circuits using output pressure of shift solenoid valve A to meet
driving conditions (vehicle speed, throttle opening, etc.).
Provides automatic downshifting and up-shifting (1st → 2nd → 3rd → 4th gears/4th → 3rd → 2nd
→ 1st gears) in combination with shift valve B.
Shift valve B Simultaneously switches three oil circuits using output pressure of shift solenoid valve B in rela-
tion to driving conditions (vehicle speed, throttle opening, etc.).
Provides automatic downshifting and up-shifting (1st → 2nd → 3rd → 4th gears/4th → 3rd → 2nd
→ 1st gears) in combination with shift valve A.
Overrun clutch control valve Switches hydraulic circuits to prevent engagement of the overrun clutch simultaneously with appli-
cation of the brake band in D
4 . (Interlocking occurs if the overrun clutch engages during D4 .)
1st reducing valve Reduces low & reverse brake pressure to dampen engine-brake shock when down-shifting from
the “1” position 1
2 to 11 .
Overrun clutch reducing valve Reduces oil pressure directed to the overrun clutch and prevents engine-brake shock.
In “1” and “2” positions, line pressure acts on the overrun clutch reducing valve to increase the
pressure-regulating point, with resultant engine brake capability.
Torque converter relief valve Prevents an excessive rise in torque converter pressure.
Torque converter clutch control
valve, plug and sleeveActivates or inactivates the lock-up function.
Also provides smooth lock-up through transient application and release of the lock-up system.
1-2 accumulator valve and piston Dampens the shock encountered when 2nd gear band servo contracts, and provides smooth
shifting.
3-2 timing valve Switches oil pressure with 3-2 timing valve according to throttle opening.
Shuttle control valve Reduces shock when down-shifting from 3rd to 2nd and regulates overrun clutch.
Cooler check valve Regulates oil pressure which causes lock-up when driving at low speeds.
