CAMSHAFT - RIGHT
DESCRIPTION
The camshafts consist of powdered metal steel lobes which are sinter-bonded to a steel tube. A steel post or nose
piece is friction-welded to the steel camshaft tube. Five bearing journals are machined into the camshaft, four on the
steel tube and one on the steel nose piece. Camshaft end play is controlled by two thrust walls that border the nose
piece journal. Engine oil enters the hollow camshafts at the third journaland lubricates every intake lobe rocker

REMOVAL
1. Remove the cylinder head covers (1) (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/CYLINDER HEAD
COVER(S) - REMOVAL).
CAUTION: When the timing chain is removed and the cylinder heads are still installed, DO NOT forcefully
rotate the camshafts or crankshaft independently of each other. Severe valve and/or piston damage can
occur.
CAUTION: When removing the cam sprocket, timing chains or camshaft, Failure to use special tool 8350 will
result in hydraulic tensioner ratchet over extension, Requiring timing chain cover removal to re-set the ten-
sioner ratchet.
2. Set engine to TDC cylinder #1, camshaft sprocket V8 marks at the 12 o’clock position.
3. Mark one link on the secondary timing chain on both sides of the V8 mark on the camshaft sprocket to aid in
installation.

4. With the engine in this position, valve lash can be measured at the following rocker arms:INTAKE 1–2–4 /
EXHAUST 1–3–5. Measure the valve lash by inserting a feeler gauge between the rocker arm socket and cross-
head. Refer to VALVE LASH LIMIT CHART for the correct specifications. If the measurement fallswithinthe
limits, adjustment/resettingis notnecessary. If measurement finds the lashoutsideof the limits, adjustment/
resettingisrequired.

REVERSE POWERFLOW
When the gear selector is moved into the REVERSE position, the front clutch(1, 7) and the rear band (3, 8) are
applied. With the application of the front clutch, engine torque (4, 6) is applied to the sun gear, turning it in a clock-
wise direction. The clockwise rotation of the sun gear causes the rear planet pinions to rotate against engine rota-
tion in a counterclockwise direction. The rear band is holding the low reverse drum, which is splined to the rear
carrier. Since the rear carrier is being held, the torque from the planet pinions is transferred to the rear annulus
gear, which is splined to the output shaft (2, 5). The output shaft in turn rotates with the annulus gear in a coun-
terclockwise direction giving a reverse gear output. The entire transmission of torque is applied to the rear planetary
gearset only. Although there is torque input to the front gearset through the sun gear, no other member of the gear-
set is being held. During the entire reverse stage of operation, the front planetary gears are in an idling condition.

SECOND GEAR POWERFLOW
In DRIVE-SECOND, the same elements are applied as in MANUAL-SECOND. Therefore, the power flow will be the
same, and both gears will be discussed as one in the same. In DRIVE-SECOND, the transmission has proceeded
from first gear to its shift point, and is shifting from first gear to second. The second gear shift is obtained by keep-
ing the rear clutch applied ((3, 7) and applying the front (kickdown) band (1, 8). The front band holds the front clutch
retainer that is locked to the sun gear driving shell. With the rear clutch still applied, the input is still on the front
annulus gear turning it clockwise at engine speed. Now that the front band is holding the sun gear stationary, the
annulus rotation causes the front planets to rotate in a clockwise direction. The front carrier is then also made to
rotate in a clockwise direction but at a reduced speed. This will transmit the torque to the output shaft (2, 4), which
is directly connected to the front planet carrier. The rear planetary annulus gear will also be turning because it is
directly splined to the output shaft. All power flow has occurred in the front planetary gear set during the drive-
second stage of operation, and now the over-running clutch, in the rear of the transmission, is disengaged and
freewheeling on its hub.

DIRECT DRIVE POWERFLOW
The vehicle has accelerated and reached the shift point for the 2-3 upshiftinto direct drive. When the shift takes
place, the front band is released, and the front clutch is applied (1, 9). The rear clutch stays applied (4, 8) as it has
been in all the forward gears. With the front clutch now applied, engine torque is now on the front clutch retainer,
which is locked to the sun gear drivingshell. This means that the sun gear isnow turning in engine rotation (clock-
wise) and at engine speed. The rear clutch is still applied so engine torque(6, 10) is also still on the front annulus
gear. If two members of the same planetary set are driven, direct drive results. Therefore, when two members are
rotating at the same speed and in the same direction, it is the same as being locked up. The rear planetary set is
also locked up, given the sun gear is still the input, and the rear annulus gear must turn with the output shaft (3, 5).
Both gears are turning in the same direction and at the same speed. The frontand rear planet pinions do not turn
at all in direct drive. The only rotation is the input from the engine to the connected parts, which are acting as one
common unit, to the output shaft.
FOURTHGEARPOWERFLOW
Fourth gear overdrive range is electronically controlled and hydraulically activated. Various sensor inputs are sup-
plied to the powertrain control module to operate the overdrive solenoid on the valve body. The solenoid contains a
check ball that opens and closes a vent port in the 3-4 shift valve feed passage. The overdrive solenoid (and check
ball) are not energized in first, second, third, or reverse gear. The vent port remains open, diverting line pressure
from the 2-3 shift valve away from the 3-4 shift valve. The Tow/Haul controlswitch must be in the ON position to
transmit overdrive status to the PCM. A 3-4 upshift occurs only when the overdrive solenoid is energized by the
PCM. The PCM energizes the overdrive solenoid during the 3-4 upshift. Thiscauses the solenoid check ball to close
the vent port allowing line pressure from the 2-3 shift valve to act directly on the 3-4 upshift valve. Line pressure on
the 3-4 shift valve overcomes valve spring pressure moving the valve to theupshift position. This action exposes
the feed passages to the 3-4 timing valve, 3-4 quick fill valve, 3-4 accumulator, and ultimately to the overdrive pis-
ton. Line pressure through the timing valve moves the overdrive piston into contact with the overdrive clutch. The
direct clutch is disengaged before the overdrive clutch is engaged. The boost valve provides increased fluid apply

ADJUSTMENTS - VALVE BODY
CONTROL PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS
There are two control pressure adjustments on the valve body;
Line Pressure
Throttle Pressure
Line and throttle pressures are interdependent because each affects shift quality and timing. As a result, both
adjustments must be performed properly and in the correct sequence. Adjust line pressure first and throttle pressure
last.
LINE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
1. Measure distance (2) from the valve body to the
inner edge of the adjusting screw with an accurate
steel scale. Distance should be 33.4 mm (1-5/16
in.). If adjustment is required, turn the adjusting
screw in, or out, to obtain required distance setting.
NOTE: The 33.4 mm (1-5/16 in.) setting is an
approximate setting. Manufacturing tolerances
may make it necessary to vary from this dimen-
sion to obtain desired pressure.
One complete turn of the adjusting screw changes line
pressure approximately 1-2/3 psi (9 kPa).
Turning the adjustingscrew counterclockwise
increases pressure while turning the screw clockwise
decreases pressure.
THROTTLE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
1. Insert Gauge Tool C-3763 between the throttle
lever cam and the kickdown valve stem (2).
2. Push the gauge tool inward to compress the kick-
down valve against the spring and bottom the throt-
tle valve.
3. Maintain pressure against kickdown valve spring.
Turn throttle lever stop screw until the screw head
touches throttle lever tang and the throttle lever
cam touches gauge tool.
NOTE: The kickdown valve spring must be fully
compressed and the kickdown valve completely
bottomed to obtain correct adjustment.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM SERVICE EQUIPMENT
WARNING: Eye protection must be worn when servicing an A/C refrigerant system. Turn all valves off
(rotate clockwise) on the equipment being used before connecting or disconnecting service equipment from
the refrigerant system. Failure to observe these warnings may result in personal injury or death.
WARNING: Refer to the applicable warnings and cautions for this system before performing the following
operation (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING - WARNINGS) and (Refer to 24 - HEAT-
ING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING - CAUTIONS). Failure to follow the warnings and cautions could result
in possible personal injury or death.
When servicing the A/C system, an R-134a refrigerant
recovery/recycling/charging station (1) that meets SAE
standard J2210 must be used. Contact an automotive
service equipment supplier for refrigerant recovery/re-
cycling/charging equipment. Refer to the operating
instructions supplied by the equipment manufacturer
for proper care and use of this equipment.
A manifold gauge set (1) may be needed with some
recovery/recycling/charging equipment. The manifold
gauge set should have manual shut-off valves (2 and
6), or automatic back-flow valves located at the ser-
vice port connector end of the manifold gauge set
hoses (4 and 5). This will prevent refrigerant from
being released into the atmosphere.
MANIFOLD GAUGE SET CONNECTIONS
CAUTION: Do not use an R-12 manifold gauge set on an R-134a system. The refrigerants are not compatible
and system damage will result.

The primary components within the assembly are: A three port solenoid thatactivates both of the functions listed
above; a pump which contains a switch, two check valves and a spring/diaphragm, a canister vent valve (CVV) seal
which contains a spring loaded vent seal valve.
Immediately after a cold start, between predetermined temperature thresholds limits, the three port solenoid is briefly
energized. This initializes the pump by drawing air into the pump cavity and also closes the vent seal. During non
test conditions the vent seal is held open by the pump diaphragm assembly which pushes it open at the full travel
position. The vent seal will remain closed while the pump is cycling due to the reed switch triggering of the three
port solenoid that prevents the diaphragm assembly from reaching full travel. After the brief initialization period, the
solenoid is de-energized allowing atmospheric pressure to enter the pumpcavity, thus permitting the spring to drive
the diaphragm which forces air out of the pump cavity and into the vent system. When the solenoid is energized
and de energized, the cycle is repeated creating flow in typical diaphragmpump fashion. The pump is controlled in
2 modes:
Pump Mode: The pump is cycled at a fixed rate to achieve a rapid pressure build in order to shorten the overall test
length.
Test Mode: The solenoid is energized with a fixed duration pulse. Subsequent fixed pulses occur when the dia-
phragm reaches the Switch closure point.
The spring in the pump is set so that the system will achieve an equalized pressure of about 7.5” H20. The cycle
rate of pump strokes is quite rapid as the system begins to pump up to this pressure. As the pressure increases, the
cycle rate starts to drop off. If there is no leak in the system, the pump would eventually stop pumping at the equal-
ized pressure. If there is a leak, it will continue to pump at a rate representative of the flow characteristic of the size
of the leak. From this information we can determine if the leak is larger than the required detection limit (currently
set at .040” orifice by CARB). If a leak is revealed during the leak test portion of the test, the test is terminated at
the end of the test mode and no further system checks will be performed.
After passing the leak detection phase of the test, system pressure is maintained by turning on the LDP’s solenoid
until the purge system is activated. Purge activation in effect creates a leak. The cycle rate is again interrogated and
when it increases due to the flow through the purge system, the leak check portion of the diagnostic is complete.
The canister vent valve will unseal the system after completion of the testsequence as the pump diaphragm assem-
bly moves to the full travel position.
Evaporative system functionality will be verified by using the stricter evap purge flow monitor. At an appropriate
warm idle the LDP will be energized to seal the canister vent. The purge flowwill be clocked up from some small
value in an attempt to see a shift in the02 control system. If fuel vapor, indicated by a shift in the 02 control, is
present the test is passed. If not, it is assumed that the purge system is notfunctioning in some respect. The LDP
is again turned off and the test is ended.
MISFIRE MONITOR
Excessive engine misfire results in increased catalyst temperature and causes an increase in HC emissions. Severe
misfires could cause catalyst damage. To prevent catalytic convertor damage, the PCM monitors engine misfire.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors for misfire during most engine operating conditions (positive torque)
by looking at changes in the crankshaft speed. If a misfire occurs the speedof the crankshaft will vary more than
normal.
FUEL SYSTEM MONITOR
To comply with clean air regulations, vehicles are equipped with catalytic converters. These converters reduce the
emission of hydrocarbons, oxides of nitrogen and carbon monoxide. The catalyst works best when the Air Fuel (A/F)
ratio is at or near the optimum of 14.7 to 1.
The PCM is programmed to maintain the optimum air/fuel ratio of 14.7 to 1. This is done by making short term
corrections in the fuel injector pulse width based on the O2S sensor output. The programmed memory acts as a self
calibration tool that the engine controller uses to compensate for variations in engine specifications, sensor toler-
ances and engine fatigue over the life span of the engine. By monitoring theactual fuel-air ratio with the O2S sen-
sor (short term) and multiplying that with the program long-term (adaptive) memory and comparing that to the limit,
it can be determined whether it will pass an emissions test. If a malfunction occurs such that the PCM cannot main-
tain the optimum A/F ratio, then the MIL will be illuminated.
