TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH AND DRIVE PLATE
INSPECTION
1. INSPECT TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH ASSY
(a) Inspect the one-way clutch.
(1) Set SST into the inner race of the one-way clutch.
SST 09350-32014 (09351-32010)
(2) Install SST so that it fits in the notch of the converter
hub and outer race of the one-way clutch.
SST 09350-32014 (09351-32020)
(3) With the torque converter clutch setting up on its
side, check that the one-way clutch locks when it is
turned counterclockwise, and rotates clockwise
smoothly.
If necessary, clean the converter and retest the one- way
clutch.
Replace the converter if the one-way clutch still fails the test.
(b) Determine the condition of the torque converter clutch
assy.
(1) If the inspection result of the torque converter clutch
assy meets the following item, replace the torque
converter clutch.
Malfunction item:
Any metallic sound is heard from the torque convert-
er clutch during stall test or when the shift lever is in
neutral position.
One-way clutch is free or locked in both directions.
Fine powders exceeding the sample limit is identified
in ATF. (See the sample.)
HINT:
The sample shows the auto fluid of approx. 0.25 liters (0.26 US
qts, 0.22 Imp. qts) that is taken out from the removed torque
converter clutch
(c) Replace the ATF in the torque converter clutch.
(1) If the ATF is discolored and/or has a foul odor, com-
pletely stir the ATF in the torque converter clutch
and drain it with the face for installation facing up.

90. INSTALL TIMING BELT TENSIONER ASSY
(a) Set the timing belt tensioner upright on the press.
(b) Slowly press in the push rod.
NOTICE:
Do not apply pressure more than 9.8 kN (1,000 kgf, 2,205
lbf) to the rod.
(c) Align the holes of the push rod and housing, then pass a
1.5 mm hexagon wrench through the holes to keep the
setting position of the push rod.
(d) Release the press.
(e) Temporarily install the tensioner with the 2 bolts. Alter-
nately tighten the 2 bolts.
Torque: 27 NVm (280 kgfVcm, 20 ftVlbf)
NOTICE:
Be sure to tighten the bolts uniformly. Installing the ten-
sioner at an angle may cause failure of its proper operation.
(f) Remove the 1.5 mm hexagon wrench from the tensioner.
(g) Turn the crankshaft 2 revolutions slowly, then align the
timing mark of the crankshaft timing pulley with the oil
pump body.
NOTICE:
Always turn the crankshaft clockwise.
(h) Check that the timing marks of the RH and LH timing pul-
leys are aligned with the timing marks of the timing belt
No. 3 cover as shown in the illustration.
If the marks are not aligned, remove the timing belt and reinstall
it.
(i) Remove the crankshaft pulley bolt.
91. INSTALL TIMING BELT GUIDE NO.2
(a) Install the timing belt guide with the cup side facing the en-
gine front.
