Oil PanECS00EPZ
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Removal
1. Drain A/T fluid. Refer to AT- 1 2 , "Changing Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)" .
2. Remove oil pan and gasket.
3. Check foreign materials in oil pan to help determine cause of malfunction. If the A/T fluid is very dark, has some burned smell, or contains foreign particles, friction material (clutches, band) may need replacement.
A tacky film that will not wipe clean indicates varnish build up. Varnish can cause valves, servo, and
clutches to stick and can inhibit pump pressure.
CAUTION:
If friction material is detected, flush the transmission cooler after repair. Refer to AT- 1 4 , "
A/T Fluid
Cooler Cleaning" .
4. Remove magnets from oil pan.
Installation
1. Install the oil pan magnets as shown.

2. Install the oil pan and new oil pan gasket.
CAUTION:

Do not reuse the oil pan gasket.

Completely remove all moisture, oil and old gasket from
the oil pan gasket mating surfaces and holes.

Always replace the oil pan bolts as they are self-sealing.

Be sure the oil pan drain plug hole is located to the rear
of the transmission assembly.

Partially install the oil pan bolts in a criss-cross pattern to
prevent dislocation of the gasket.

Be careful not to pinch harnesses.
3. Tighten new oil pan bolts in numerical order as shown.
4. Install drain plug in oil pan with new gasket. CAUTION:
Do not reuse the drain plug gasket.
5. Refill the transmission assembly with fluid. Refer to AT- 1 2 , "
Changing Automatic Transmission Fluid
(ATF)" .

INSTALLATION
Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of the removal, while paying attention to the
following:

When installing transmission to the engine, attach the bolts as shown.
NOTE:
*: No.2 bolt also secures air breather vent.
CAUTION:

When replacing an engine or transmission you must
make sure the dowels are installed correctly during re-
assembly.

Improper alignment caused by missing dowels may
cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of drivetrain com-
ponents.

Align the positions of bolts for drive plate with those of the torque
converter, and temporarily tighten the bolts. Then tighten the
bolts with the specified torque.
CAUTION:

When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from
the front of the engine.

After converter is installed to drive plate, rotate crankshaft
several turns and check to be sure that transmission
rotates freely without binding.

Install crankshaft position sensor (POS).

After completing installation check fluid leakage, fluid level and
the positions of A/T. Refer to AT- 1 2 , "
Checking Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)" , AT- 2 2 7 , "Checking
of A/T Position" and AT- 2 2 7 , "Adjustment of A/T Position" .
