15. Check piston stroke of OD direct clutch (C–0)
Place the oil pump onto the torque converter, and
then place the OD direct clutch assembly onto the
oil pump.
25 2L10 0005Using a dial indicator, measure the OD direct clutch
piston stroke by applying and releasing the
compressed air (390 – 780 kPa or 57 – 114 psi) as
shown.
Piston stroke: 1.85 – 2.15 mm (0.0729 – 0.0847 in)
If the piston stroke is not within specification,
replace the disc and recheck the piston stroke.
If the piston stroke is nonstandard, select another
flange.
