DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Leakage Inspection
CAUTION: Do not try to stop the fluid leak by increasing the torque beyond specifications.
This may cause damage to the case threads.
Check the fluid filler tube connection at the transmission case. If leakage is found here, install a new
grommet.
Check the VSS plug or VSS sensor O-ring (model dependent). If leakage is found install a new O- ring.
Check fluid lines and fittings between the transmission and the cooler in the radiator tank for
looseness, wear, or damage. If leakage cannot be stopped by tightening a fluid tube nut, install new
parts. When fluid is found leaking between the case and cooler line fitting, check for missing or
damaged O- ring, then tighten the fitting to maximum specification.
If the leak continues, install a new cooler line fitting and tighten to specification. The same procedure
should be followed for fluid leaks between the radiator cooler and the cooler line fittings in this section;
refer to Section 307 - 02 .
Check the engine coolant in the radiator. If transmission fluid is present in the coolant, the cooler in the
radiator is probably leaking.
The cooler can be further checked for leaks by disconnecting the lines for the cooler fittings and
applying no more than 345 kPa (50 psi) air pressure to the fittings. Remove the radiator cap to relieve
the pressure buildup at the exterior of the oil cooler tank. If the cooler is leaking and or will not hold
pressure, install a new cooler.
If leakage is found at the transmission range selector lever, install a new seal.
If leakage is found at the transmission internal harness connector, install a new O- ring. 4R70W External Sealing SECTION 307-

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
