7B1-38 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (4 A/T)
Stall Test
This test is to check overall performance of automatic transmission and engine by measuring stall speed at “D”
and “R” ranges. Be sure to perform this test only when transmission fluid is at normal operating temperature and
its level is between FULL and LOW marks.
1) Apply parking brake and block wheels.
2) Install tachometer.
3) Start engine with select lever shifted to “P”.
4) Depress brake pedal fully.
5) Shift select lever to “D” and depress accelerator pedal fully while watching tachometer. Read engine rpm
quickly when it has become constant (stall speed).
6) Release accelerator pedal immediately after stall speed is checked.
7) In the same way, check stall speed in “R” range.
8) Stall speed should be within the following specification.
Stall speed :
2,460 – 2,760 r/min.
TROUBLESHOOTING
CAUTION:
Do not run engine at stall more than 5 seconds continuously, for fluid temperature may rise exces-
sively high.
After performing stall test, be sure to leave engine running at idle for longer than 30 seconds before
another stall test.
Condition Possible cause
Lower than standard level•Faulty engine output
•Defective torque converter
Higher than standard level in “D” range•Slippery O/D clutch
•Slippery forward clutch
•Malfunctioning O/D one-way clutch
•Malfunctioning one-way clutch No. 2
•Low line pressure
Higher than standard level in “R” range•Slippery direct clutch
•Slippery reverse brake
•Low fluid pressure
•Slippery O/D clutch
•Defective O/D one-way clutch

Line Pressure Test
Purpose of this test is to check operating conditions of each part
by measuring fluid pressure in fluid pressure line. Line pressure
test requires following conditions.
•Automatic fluid is at normal operating temperature (70 to 80
°
C/158 – 176 °F).
•Fluid is filled to proper level (between FULL HOT and LOW
HOT on dipstick).
1) Apply parking brake securely and place checks against
wheels.
2) Attach oil pressure gauge to fluid pressure check hole (1) in
transmission case.
Special tool
(A) : 09925-37811-001
3) Depress foot brake fully, run engine at idle and stall.
4) Check fluid pressure in “D” or “R” range within the following
specification.
Line pressure :
5) If check result is OK, disconnect special tool, then tighten
transmission case plug to specified torque.

Transmission case plug : 17 N·m (1.7 kg-m, 12.0 lb-ft) CAUTION:
After attaching oil pressure gauge, check that not fluid
leakage exists.
CAUTION:
Do not continue running engine at stall speed longer
than 5 seconds.

LEVEL CHECK AT ROOM TEMPERATURE
The fluid level check at room temperature (20 – 30 °C (68 – 86
°F)) performed after repair or fluid change before test driving is
just preparation for level check of normal operating temperature.
The checking procedure itself is the same as that described previ-
ously. If the fluid level is between FULL COLD and LOW COLD,
proceed to test drive. And when the fluid temperature has
reached the normal operating temperature, check fluid level again
and adjust it as necessary.
Fluid change
1) Lift up vehicle.
2) With engine is cool, remove drain plug (1) from oil pan and
drain A/T fluid.
3) Install drain plug (1).
Tightening torque
A/T fluid drain plug (a) :
23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 17.0 lb-ft)
4) Lower vehicle and fill proper amount of an equivalent of
DEXRON

5) Check fluid level referring to “LEVEL CHECK NORMAL
OPERATING TEMPERATURE” of “FLUID LEVEL” in this
section.
Fluid specification :
An equivalent of DEXRON

When draining from drain plug hole:
2.5 liters (5.28/4.40 US/lmp.pt.)
When overhauling:
