EPC readings will vary due to EEC strategy. These values are approximate pressures. Actual clutch
apply pressures should be within 69- 103 kPa (10-15 psi) of line pressure. For additional information on
testing, refer to the Clutch Pressure Test in this section.
3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position. If line pressure is not within specification, check EPC pressure.
4. Connect pressure gauge to EPC pressure tap.
5. Start engine and check EPC pressure. Use the line pressure chart for specifications.
6. If EPC pressure is not within specification, Go To Pinpoint Test E to diagnose EPC operation. If

following areas of possible leakage should also be checked to determine if engine oil leakage is
causing the concern.
a. Leakage at the engine valve cover gasket may allow oil to flow over the torque converter housing or seep down between the torque converter housing and cylinder block causing oil to
be present in or at the bottom of the torque converter housing.
b. Oil galley plug leaks will allow oil to flow down the rear face of the cylinder block to the bottom of the torque converter housing.
c. Leakage at the crankshaft rear oil seal will work back to the flexplate, and then into the torque converter housing.
d. Leakage at engine oil pressure sensor.
Leak Check Test 1. Remove the fluid level indicator and note the color of the fluid. Original factory fill fluid is dyed red to aid in determining if leakage is from the engine or transmission. Unless a considerable
amount of makeup fluid has been added or the fluid has been changed, the red color should
assist in pinpointing the leak.
2. Remove the torque converter housing cover. Clean off any fluid from the top and bottom of the torque converter housing, front of the case and rear face of the engine and oil pan. Clean the
torque converter area by washing with a suitable nonflammable solvent and blow dry with
compressed air.
3. Wash out the torque converter housing, the front of the flexplate and the converter drain plugs. The torque converter housing may be washed out using cleaning solvent and a squirt- type oil
can. Blow all washed areas dry with compressed air.
4. Start and run the engine until the transmission reaches its normal operating temperature. Observe the back of the cylinder block and top of the torque converter housing for evidence of
fluid leakage. Raise the vehicle on a hoist; refer to Section 100 - 02 and run the engine at fast
idle, then at engine idle, occasionally shifting to the Overdrive and Reverse ranges to increase
pressure within the transmission. Observe the front of the flexplate, back of the cylinder block
(in as far as possible), and inside the torque converter housing and front of the case. Run the
engine until fluid leakage is evident and the probable source of leakage can be determined.
Leak Check Test With Black Light Used With 12 Volt Master UV Diagnostic Inspection Kit
Oil soluble aniline or fluorescent dyes premixed at the rate of 2.5ml (1/2 teaspoon) of dye powder to
0.235L (1/2 pint) of transmission fluid have proved helpful in locating the source of fluid leakage. Such
dyes may be used to determine whether an engine oil or transmission fluid leak is present, or if the
fluid in the fluid cooler leaks into the engine cooling system. A black light must be used with the
fluorescent dye solution. Klj . 4 ba
