5. Line pressure should be 54-60 psi (372-414 kPa) with throttle lever forward and gradually increase to 90-96 psi
(621-662 kPa) as lever is moved rearward.
Test Three - Transmission In D Range Third Gear
This test checks pressure regulation and condition of the clutch circuits. Both test gauges are required for this test.
1. Turn OD switch off.
2. Leave vehicle on hoist and leave Oil Pressure Gauge C-3292 in place at accumulator port.
3. Move Oil Pressure Gauge C-3293-SP over to front servo port for this test.
4. Have helper start and run engine at 1600 rpm for this test.
5. Move transmission shift lever two detents rearward from full forward position. This is D range.
6. Read pressures on both gauges as transmission throttle lever is gradually moved from full forward to full rear-
ward position:
Line pressure at accumulator in D range third gear, should be 54-60 psi (372-414 kPa) with throttle lever for-
ward and increase as lever is moved rearward.
Front servo pressure in D range third gear, should be within 3 psi (21 kPa) ofline pressure up to kickdown
point.
Test Four - Transmission In Reverse
This test checks pump output, pressure regulation and the front clutch andrear servo circuits. Use 300 psi Oil
Pressure Gauge C-3293-SP for this test.
1. Leave vehicle on hoist and leave Oil Pressure Gauge C-3292 in place at accumulator port.
2. Move 300 psi Oil Pressure Gauge C-3293-SP back to rear servo port.
3. Have helper start and run engine at 1600 rpm for test.

(1586-1931 kPa) as lever is gradually moved rearward.
Test Five - Governor Pressure
This test checks governor operation by measuring governor pressure response to changes in vehicle speed. It is
usually not necessary to check governor operation unless shift speeds areincorrect or if the transmission will not
downshift. The test should be performed on the road or on a hoist that will allow the rear wheels to rotate freely.
1. Move 100 psi Oil Pressure Gauge C-3292 to governor pressure port.
2. Move transmission shift lever two detents rearward from full forward position. This is D range.
3. Have helper start and run engine at curb idle speed. Then firmly apply service brakes so wheels will not rotate.
4. Note governor pressure:
Governor pressure should be no more than 20.6 kPa (3 psi) at curb idle speed and wheels not rotating.
If pressure exceeds 20.6 kPa (3 psi), a fault exists in governor pressure control system.
5. Release brakes, slowly increase engine speed, and observe speedometerand pressure test gauge (do not
exceed 30 mph on speedometer). Governor pressure should increase in proportion to vehicle speed. Or approx-
imately 6.89 kPa (1 psi) for every 1 mph.
6. Governor pressure rise should be smooth and drop back to no more than 20.6kPa (3 psi), after engine returns
to curb idle and brakes are applied to prevent wheels from rotating.
7. Compare results of pressure test with analysis chart.
Test Six - Transmission In Overdrive Fourth Gear
This test checks line pressure at the overdrive clutch in fourth gear range. Use 300 psi Oil Pressure Gauge
C-3293-SP for this test. The test should be performed on the road or on a chassis dyno.
1. Remove tachometer; it is not needed for this test.
2. Move 300 psi Oil Pressure Gauge to overdrive clutch pressure test port. Then remove other gauge and reinstall
test port plug.

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

the alignment hole and through the assembly.
11. Push the BTSI lock tab (4) down until it snaps into place and remove the drill bit.
12. Install any steering column trim previously removed.
BTSI FUNCTION CHECK
1. Verify removal of ignition key allowed in PARK position only.
2. When the shift lever is in PARK, the ignition key cylinder should rotate freely from off to lock. When the shifter
is in any other position, the ignition key should not rotate from off to lock.
3. Shifting out of PARK should be possible when the ignition key cylinder isin the off position.
4. Shifting out of PARK should not be possible while applying normal force,and ignition key cylinder is in the run
or start positions, unless the foot brake pedal is depressed approximately1/2inch(12mm).
5. Shifting out of PARK should not be possible when the ignition key cylinder is in the accessory or lock position.
6. Shifting between any gear and NEUTRAL, or PARK, may be done without depressing foot brake with ignition
switch in run or start positions.
7. Engine starts must be possible with shifter lever in PARK or NEUTRAL positions only. Engine starts must not be
possible in any position other than PARK or NEUTRAL.
8. With shifter lever in the:
PARK position - Apply upward force on the shift arm and remove pressure. Enginestartsmustbepossible.
PARK position - Apply downward force on the shift arm and remove pressure. Engine starts must be possible.
NEUTRAL position - Normal position. Engine starts must be possible.
NEUTRAL position - Engine running and brakes applied, apply upward force on the shift arm. Transmission
shall not be able to shift from neutral to reverse.

After the fluid has been checked, seat the dipstick fully to seal out water and dirt.
The transmission has a dipstick to check oil level. It is located on the right side of the engine. Be sure to wipe all
dirt from dipstick handle before removing.
Fluid level is checked with the engine running at curb idle speed, the transmissioninNEUTRALandthetransmis-
sion fluid at normal operating temperature.The engine should be running at idle speed for at least one minute,
with the vehicle on level ground.
The transmission fluid level can be checked two ways.
PROCEDURE ONE
1. Transmission fluid must be at normal operating
temperature for accurate fluid level check. Drive
vehicle if necessary to bring fluid temperature up to
normal hot operating temperature of 82°C (180°F).
2. Position vehicle on level surface.
3. Start and run engine at curb idle speed.
4. Apply parking brakes.
5. Shift transmission momentarily into all gear ranges.
Then shift transmission back to NEUTRAL.
6. Clean top of filler tube and dipstick to keep dirt from entering tube.
7. Remove dipstick (1) and check fluid level as follows:
a. Correct acceptable level is in crosshatch area.
b. Correct maximum level is to MAX arrow mark.
c. Incorrect level is at or below MIN line.
d. If fluid is low, add only enough Mopar
ATF +4 to restore correct level. Do not overfill.

3. Clean the gasket surfaces of the transmission oil
pan (3) and transmission pan rail.
NOTE: The transmission pan oil gasket (2) is reus-
able. Inspect the sealing surfaces of the gasket. If
the sealing ribs on both surfaces appear to be in
good condition, clean the gasket of any foreign
material and reinstall.
4. Position the oil pan gasket (2) onto the oil pan (3).
5. Position the oil pan and gasket onto the transmis-
sion and install several bolts to hold the pan and
gasket to the transmission.
6. Install the remainder of the oil pan bolts. Tighten
the bolts to 13.6 Nꞏm (125 in.lbs.).
7. Lower vehicle and fill transmission. (Refer to 21 -
TRANSMISSION/AUTOMATIC/FLUID - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
TRANSMISSION FILL
To avoid overfilling transmission after a fluid change or overhaul, perform the following procedure:
1. Remove dipstick and insert clean funnel in transmission fill tube.
2. Add following initial quantity of Mopar
ATF+4totransmission:
a. If only fluid and filter were changed, add3 pints (1-1/2 quarts)of ATF +4 to transmission.
b. If transmission was completely overhauled, torque converter was replaced or drained, and cooler was
flushed, add12 pints (6 quarts)of ATF +4 to transmission.
3. Apply parking brakes.
4. Start and run engine at normal curb idle speed.
5. Apply service brakes, shift transmission through all gear ranges then back to NEUTRAL, set parking brake, and
leave engine running at curb idle speed.
6. Remove funnel, insert dipstick andcheck fluid level. If level is low,add fluid to bring level to MIN mark on
dipstick.Check to see if the oil level is equal on both sides of the dipstick. If one side is noticably higher than
the other, the dipstick has picked up some oil from the dipstick tube. Allowthe oil to drain down the dipstick tube
and re-check.
7. Drive vehicle until transmission fluid is at normal operating temperature.
8. With the engine running at curb idle speed, the gear selector in NEUTRAL,and the parking brake applied, check
the transmission fluid level.
CAUTION: Do not overfill transmission, fluid foaming and shifting problems can result.
9. Add fluid to bring level up to MAX arrow mark.
When fluid level is correct, shut engine off, release park brake, remove funnel, and install dipstick in fill tube.

Radial-ply tires have the same load-carrying capacity as other types of tires of the same size. They also use the
same recommended inflation pressures.
The use of oversized tires, either in the front or rear of the vehicle, can cause vehicle drive train failure. This could
also cause inaccurate wheel speed signals when the vehicle is equipped with Anti-Lock Brakes.
The use of tires from different manufactures on the same vehicle is NOT recommended. The proper tire pressure
should be maintained on all four tires.
TIRE PRESSURE FOR HIGH SPEEDS
For proper tire pressure specification refer to the Owners Manual.
REPLACEMENT TIRES
The original equipment tires provide a proper balance of many characteristics such as:
Ride
Noise
Handling
Durability
Tread life
Traction
Rolling resistance
Speed capability
It is recommended that tires equivalent to the original equipment tires beused when replacement is needed.
Failure to use equivalent replacement tires may adversely affect the safety and handling of the vehicle.
The use of oversize tires may cause interference with vehicle components.Under extremes of suspension and
steering travel, interference with vehicle components may cause tire damage.
WARNING: Failure to equip the vehicle with tires having adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire
failure.
TIRE INFLATION PRESSURES
WARNING: Over or under inflated tires can affect
vehicle handling and tread wear. This may cause
the tire to fail suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle
control.
Under inflation will cause rapid shoulder wear (1), tire
flexing, and possible tire failure.
